This article provides a theoretical and practical analysis of code-switching and translanguaging practices on social media, with particular attention to their use in Uzbek, Russian, and English. The main aim of the research is to differentiate the diverse forms of multilingualism in the digital sphere and to identify their communicative and social functions. Code-switching is approached as a more structured and functional alternation between languages, while translanguaging is interpreted as a creative, flexible, and meaning-making multilingual practice. The distinctions and similarities between these two phenomena are explored in light of contemporary theoretical perspectives. The study applies Self-Determination Theory to examine motivational aspects of language choice, and Digital Discourse Analysis to highlight the dynamics of social media interaction. Data were collected from authentic social media posts, user exchanges, and interactive communication. Findings demonstrate that users strategically employ multilingual resources for identity construction, audience engagement, and stylistic effects The article concludes with practical recommendations for improving language education, strengthening language policy, and enhancing digital literacy in Uzbekistan.
