Abstract

The article examines the typology and variety of abbreviations in the Russian and Uzbek languages, emphasizing the lexical economy due to the efficiency and necessity of modern communication. There are also several types of abbreviations, such as initialisms, acronyms, truncations and abbreviations, each of which performs specific linguistic functions and reflects specific cultural and administrative practices. The article reveals the evolving use of abbreviations in language as a reflection of adaptation to the pace of technological and social change. The condensation of language through acronyms indicates the rapid dissemination of information across various platforms. It also emphasizes that acronyms not only provide linguistic convenience but also play a key role in organizing discussions within and between cultures in today's interconnected world. The main idea in the article is that the adaptation of foreign abbreviations in the Russian and Uzbek lexicon illustrates the dynamic intersection of languages, and also emphasizes the importance of language adaptation as a way of enriching and developing the linguistic community in the conditions of a modern multilingual and multicultural world.
