This article examines the phenomenon of lexical polysemy in English and Uzbek in a comparative perspective and analyzes it in terms of its general and specific features. The study explores the semantic structure of words, their primary and derived meanings, as well as the development and transfer of meaning. It also analyzes the interrelation of polysemous meanings, their semantic differentiation, and lexical-semantic relations. The results of the comparative analysis contribute to a better understanding of the lexical characteristics of the English and Uzbek languages. Through illustrative examples, the article demonstrates the role of polysemy in language structure, identifies differences in meaning across various contexts, and reveals semantic connections within the lexical system of words.
