The article presents a corpus-based analysis of code-switching practices in the spoken discourse of Generations Z and Alpha, based on materials in English, Russian, and Uzbek. The study aims to identify the specific features of the linguistic behavior of these two generations in the context of globalization and the active use of digital technologies. It has been established that representatives of Generation Z employ code-switching primarily as a means of expressing group identity, reinforcing a sense of belonging to a particular social environment, and serving as a marker of cultural solidarity. In contrast, Generation Alpha demonstrates a more flexible, creative, and spontaneous approach to code-switching, perceiving it not as a deliberate choice but as a natural part of speech practice. These differences indicate the evolution of multilingual behavior and emphasize the role of the media environment in shaping new models of communication. The findings highlight the necessity of further research into linguistic dynamics within the digital age. The obtained data may be applied in the development of educational and communicative strategies for working with multilingual generations.
