STRUCTURAL-SEMANTIC DESCRIPTION OF TERMS IN THE FIELD OF TRANSPORT IN ENGLISH AND UZBEK POLYSEMY AND HOMONYMY OF TRANSPORT TERMS

In this article, we study some important term characteristics and aspects of its rise and operation. It is shown that a significant number of terms have a dual role as they operate in a specific domain where they are customary and widely used, and in the common area where they have a highly specialized nature. It is conjectured that to carry out demarcation of the terms from the non-terms, it is expedient to take into account the fact that all terms are generally divided into two major groups: proper terms and terminological words. Morphological and semantic differences between terms and ordinary words are discussed. The national and international tendencies in terminology are reviewed. It is argued that a terminological neologism can and should be based mainly on the native lexical reserve. Also, the generalized attributes of an apt term are presented.
