Abstract

This article explores the influence of Persian-origin scientific terminology on the Uzbek lexicon. Linguistic interactions between Persian and Uzbek languages date back centuries, with significant exchanges facilitated through trade and cultural connections along the Silk Road. Persian, as a prominent language of science, literature, and culture in the medieval Islamic world, enriched Uzbek scientific lexicon with terms related to philosophy, mathematics, medicine, and literature. The article examines key scientific terms of Persian origin, their etymology, semantic evolution, and adaptation within the Uzbek language. Insights into their phonetic adaptation and semantic broadening or narrowing are provided, illustrating the dynamic interplay between the two languages.

Keywords

Uzbek lexicon, Persian-origin words, scientific terminology, linguistic interaction, etymology, phonetic adaptation, semantic evolution.
