This article explores theolinguistics, an interdisciplinary field dedicated to understanding the intricate relationship between language and religion. It asserts that religion profoundly shapes linguistic expression and cognition, influencing even everyday language beyond explicit religious texts. Terms like “redemption” or “grace” demonstrate this “linguistic seepage”, subtly influencing worldviews. Theolinguistics employs methods from cognitive linguistics, corpus linguistics, and historical semantics to analyze how religious consciousness is embedded in language. The article traces the field's formalization, highlighting its introduction by Jean–Pierre van Noppen in 1981 and popularization by D. Crystal and A. Wagner. It underscores the field's unique position in combining linguistic analysis with theological insights, offering a holistic perspective on how the sacred is woven into the fabric of human communication and thought, as exemplified by research from Uzbek linguists like M. R. Galiyeva. The article also reflects on the implications of theolinguistics for intercultural communication, language pedagogy, and translation studies, especially in multilingual societies where religious discourse intersects with everyday speech.
