The integration of digital technologies into education has led to the rapid emergence of e-learning terminology, most of which originates in English. This paper investigates how such terminology is incorporated into the Uzbek language, focusing on structural, semantic, and functional aspects. The research explores how linguistic mechanisms such as calquing, borrowing, and contextual adaptation influence the formation of Uzbek equivalents. It also examines how differences in grammatical structure and communicative style affect the interpretation and usage of terms. The findings indicate that Uzbek e-learning terminology is characterized by variability and gradual standardization, while English terminology remains stable and globally uniform. The study emphasizes the importance of developing consistent terminology to ensure effective communication in digital education environments.
