Abstract

This article analyzes the structural and semantic features of occasional phraseological units and their stylistic functions in speech. The aim of the study is to identify the structural modifications, semantic changes, and artistic connotations of occasional phraseologisms found in Uzbek and English literature. The article employs descriptive, comparative, contextual, and structural-semantic methods of analysis. The results show that: occasional phraseologisms are formed structurally through component replacement, addition, or reduction; semantically, processes such as meaning expansion, narrowing, and metaphorical shift are observed; they serve as a key stylistic tool that enhances the emotional-aesthetic impact of the text.
