The article explores the profound significance of religious lexicology in Yann Martel’s Booker Prize-winning novel, “The Life of Pi”. By examining the linguistic choices related to Hinduism, Catholicism, and Islam, the study reveals how religious terminology serves as more than just a stylistic element, but as a structural framework for the protagonist's survival and spiritual identity. Through the IMRAD structure, the research analyzes the semantic fields of sacred vocabulary and their pragmatic impact on the narrative’s themes of faith and reality. The findings suggest that the intersection of diverse religious lexemes creates a unique linguistic syncretism that mirrors the protagonist's internal struggle and ultimate enlightenment.
