Affixation is a central process in the morphological structure of languages, particularly in agglutinative languages like Uzbek. It involves the attachment of affixes (prefixes and suffixes) to root words to modify meaning or grammatical function. While suffixes in Uzbek have been extensively studied, prefixes, particularly those in borrowed technical vocabulary, remain underexplored. The lack of comprehensive studies comparing the roles and functions of both prefixes and suffixes in Uzbek creates a significant gap in the understanding of its morphological system. This study aims to analyze the distinctions between prefixes and suffixes in Uzbek, focusing on their semantic and grammatical roles, historical development, and syntactic implications. The research finds that while suffixes dominate in grammatical word formation, prefixes play an increasingly important role in altering meanings, especially in loanwords from Arabic, Persian, and Greek. Prefixes contribute to semantic shifts such as negation and modality, while suffixes primarily mark grammatical categories. The novelty of this study lies in its comprehensive comparison of both affix types in Uzbek, particularly in modern contexts where borrowed prefixes are prevalent. The findings have significant implications for language teaching, lexicography, and computational linguistics, suggesting the need for more inclusive language resources that address both prefix and suffix usage in Uzbek.
