Abstract
Antonymy, as a universal linguistic phenomenon, is vital for contrast and reveals both universal and language-specific traits. Comparative-typological studies, especially between English and Uzbek, emphasize unique antonymic structures and classifications. In Uzbek linguistics and Türkology, ongoing research aims to develop structural classification criteria, analyze derivational models, and clarify the nature of antonymic pairs, enhancing comprehension of oppositional meanings within lexical paradigms.
