Sommario:
- <p><span>This article examines the linguistic features of compound words in English, with comparative reference to Uzbek. Word formation — understood as the systematic creation of new lexical units from existing linguistic material — is among the most dynamic processes in any living language, continuously enriching the lexicon. Among the various word-formation strategies, compounding occupies a particularly prominent position due to its productivity, structural transparency, and cross-linguistic prevalence. The article investigates how compound words are formed in English, reviews the major theoretical frameworks proposed by linguists, and discusses both structural and semantic dimensions of compounding. Special attention is given to the synchronic and diachronic perspectives on English word formation, as well as the growing influence of English compounding on other languages, including Uzbek.</span></p>
