Abstract

The thesis examines borrowings in the digital education terminology of Uzbek. Most of these terms come from English, directly or through Russian. The work describes the main types of borrowing and the ways borrowed terms are adapted in phonetics, spelling, morphology and meaning. It also discusses the balance between borrowed terms and native equivalents.
