LEXICAL FEATURES OF FINANCIAL TERMINOLOGY IN ENGLISH AND UZBEK

Аннотация

This study investigates the lexical characteristics of financial terminology in both English and Uzbek languages. The research mainly examines the origin, structural formation, semantic behavior, and functional usage of financial terms within the two linguistic systems. Particular attention is paid to the influence of historical, cultural, and socio-economic factors on the development of financial vocabulary. Since English serves as the dominant language of international finance, many global financial concepts originate from English and later enter Uzbek either through direct borrowing or translation. The paper also discusses the role of word formation, semantic classification, and translation difficulties in shaping financial terminology. The findings may contribute to linguistics, terminology studies, economic translation, and professional financial communication.
