Abstract

The semantics of scientific terminology plays a pivotal role in the effective communication of knowledge in both native and international contexts. This article examines the semantic aspects of scientific terminology in two linguistically and culturally distinct languages, English and Uzbek. Through an in-depth comparative analysis, this paper explores the ways in which scientific terms are formed, adapted, and evolve within the semantic systems of English and Uzbek, while considering historical, cultural, and linguistic factors. Emphasis is placed on the influence of language contact, globalization, and the role of semantic shifts in maintaining scientific communication. This study also highlights the challenges faced in standardizing and developing scientific vocabulary in both languages, providing insights into their respective processes of adaptation and integration of foreign terms.
