Abstract

This article investigates the role of word formation methods in the process of colloquialization in English and Uzbek. The study aims to explore how derivation, compounding, blending, clipping, and borrowing contribute to the development of colloquial vocabulary, reflecting social, cultural, and communicative changes. Using comparative analysis, empirical observation, and corpus-based methods, the research identifies key mechanisms that influence colloquialization in both languages. The findings highlight the importance of understanding word formation as a dynamic process shaping informal language, providing insights for linguistics, lexicography, and language pedagogy.
