Abstract: This article provides a comprehensive exploration of the linguistic features of reduplication in English and Uzbek, offering a contrastive analysis of their structural, semantic, and functional characteristics. Reduplication one of the most expressive word-formation processes is widely used across languages to convey emphasis, intensity, repetition, plurality, continuity, or emotional coloring. While English employs reduplication mainly for stylistic and expressive purposes, Uzbek makes extensive use of reduplicative structures as an integral part of its grammatical and lexical system.
