This article presents a comparative semantic analysis of function words–specifically conjunctions and prepositions–in English and Uzbek. The study is grounded in a corpus-based and contrastive linguistic methodology, aiming to uncover how these grammatical units differ and align across the two languages. English, as an analytic language, relies on fixed word order and discrete function words like “and,” “but,” and “in” to express logical, temporal, and spatial relationships. Uzbek, being an agglutinative language, often embeds these meanings morphologically through suffixes, such as -da or -ga. The findings demonstrate that while function words serve similar purposes in both languages, their forms, frequency, and contextual dependency vary significantly. Semantic overlap exists for words like and – va and because – chunki, but others like under or onto require nuanced equivalents in Uzbek. The study also reveals the pragmatic flexibility of Uzbek, where meaning can often be inferred contextually. The paper emphasizes the importance of understanding these differences in language learning, translation, and bilingual education.
