This article explores the paradigmatic and syntagmatic relations of physics terminology in English and Uzbek languages. The study aims to identify the similarities and differences in the structure, semantics, and functional use of terms in both languages. Using comparative and structural-semantic methods, the research analyzes lexical interconnections such as synonymy, antonymy, and typical collocations of physics terms. The findings demonstrate that English tends to use analytical constructions, while Uzbek relies more on affixation and morphological compounding. The results contribute to improving the translation accuracy and standardization of bilingual scientific terminology.
