This article examines the main challenges faced in translating chemical terms into the Uzbek language. The study emphasizes the complexity of scientific terminology, particularly in chemistry, due to its international character, historical development, and rapid expansion. It analyzes issues such as lexical equivalence, borrowing, standardization, and semantic accuracy. Furthermore, the paper highlights the necessity of unified terminology in Uzbek scientific discourse to ensure clarity, consistency, and accessibility in education, research, and industry.
