Abstract
This article looks at how Generation Z uses text creolization, a type of visual communication, to express themselves. The study uses ideas from semiotics, multimodality theory, and media research, as well as an analysis of media content in Uzbek media. The article says that texts that mix words and pictures, called "creolized texts," are now the main way that people born between 1997 and 2012 communicate. The analysis shows that emojis, memes, and short videos are examples of creolization, a type of cultural mixing that adapts to the thinking habits of Generation Z, including their tendency to think in clips, their love of visuals, and their shorter attention spans. The research shows how TV and new platforms in Uzbekistan, like blogs and TikTok, change their content to be more visually appealing and interactive to young people. The study's practical applications are relevant to fields like education, journalism, marketing, and social communication. The conclusion suggests that creolization is not a temporary trend but a fundamental change in human communication resulting from digital society development.
