This article is devoted to a contextual and comparative analysis of compound words in English and Uzbek languages. Compound words represent one of the most productive word-formation mechanisms in both languages and play an important role in the enrichment of vocabulary. The study analyzes structural, morphological, semantic, cognitive, and pragmatic features of compound words based on linguistic sources and academic literature [1]. Special attention is paid to typological differences between the analytic nature of English and the agglutinative structure of Uzbek. The article highlights similarities and distinctions in compound word formation and usage within discourse.
