This article investigates the linguistic features of partonyms within the assimilation layer of English and Uzbek. Partonymy, as a semantic relation denoting part–whole structures, plays a significant role in the lexical organization of languages. When partonyms enter a language through borrowing, they undergo phonological, morphological, and semantic assimilation, forming a distinct assimilated lexical layer. Through a comparative analysis, this study examines how English and Uzbek assimilate partonymic units, identifying shared tendencies and language-specific features. The findings reveal that while both languages exhibit systematic adaptation processes, differences arise due to typological distinctions, morphological structure, and phonotactic constraints. The research contributes to contrastive semantics, contact linguistics, and the study of lexical assimilation.
