This article explores the productive methods of word building in the English and Uzbek languages, highlighting the unique and shared mechanisms used to create new words. In English, methods such as affixation, compounding, conversion, and blending enable the rapid formation of new terms, reflecting the language’s adaptability and flexibility. In contrast, Uzbek, an agglutinative language, relies primarily on systematic suffixation governed by vowel harmony, producing complex words with consistent grammatical patterns. By examining these processes, this study provides insights into how both languages respond to cultural, technological, and societal changes. The comparison underscores the role of linguistic structure in shaping word formation and highlights the importance of understanding these mechanisms for language learners, educators, and linguists.
