Abstrak

This article analyzes the phenomenon of word-final devoicing, which refers to the devoicing of voiced consonants at the end of words, from both phonetic and phonological perspectives. The study comparatively examines the features of this phenomenon in English and Uzbek, highlighting that in English the preservation of voiced consonants is phonemically significant, whereas in Uzbek their devoicing is considered a natural phonetic process. The article also discusses the impact of this phenomenon on the English pronunciation of Uzbek speakers and identifies possible cases of phonetic interference.
