In the contemporary era of globalization, English has emerged as the primary lexical donor for Turkic languages, including Uzbek, Turkish, and Kazakh. This paper examines the mechanisms through which English influences the Turkic linguistic landscape, focusing on the emergence of neologisms across various domains such as information technology, business, and social media. As a result of global interconnectedness, Turkic languages are undergoing a rapid process of neologization, adopting terms either through direct borrowing (transliteration), semantic expansion, or the creation of hybrid forms.
