This paper explores the role of compound nouns in English and Uzbek languages, focusing on their significance in both cultural and linguistic contexts. Compound nouns, which combine two or more words to create new meanings, serve as essential linguistic elements that reflect the cultural nuances and social practices of the respective languages.  The study begins with an overview of the formation and structure of compound nouns in both languages, highlighting their syntactic and semantic characteristics. It delves into the cultural implications of these nouns, examining how they embody cultural identity, convey shared values, and serve as markers of social relationships.
