Yuldasheva, Dilnoza
Abstract
This article examines the formation and development of Uzbek terminology through the prismof internal and external factors across historical stages. The study analyzes how native word-formationmechanisms (internal factors) and language contacts with Arabic, Persian, Russian, and English (externalfactors) have shaped the terminological system of Uzbek. Based on a diachronic analysis of terminologicalsources from the 10th century to the present, the research identifies four historical stages: the classical period(10th–19th centuries), Soviet Russification period (1920s–1980s), independence period (1990s–2010s), anddigital globalization period (2020–present). The findings reveal that while internal factors dominated terminologyformation in the classical period, external factors became predominant during Soviet rule.
