This article examines the linguistic and functional characteristics of phraseological units (PUs) that have become specialized as terms and neologisms in the field of Physical Education and Sports (PES). Drawing on linguoculturological approaches, the study explores how phraseological units reflect cultural, historical, and social contexts while functioning within professional sports discourse. Special attention is given to the semantic classification of PUs, their nominative and expressive roles, and their adaptation from English into Uzbek. The paper also analyzes translation challenges, stylistic expressiveness, and the evolution of meaning in sports-related phraseology. The findings demonstrate that many phraseological units undergo a shift from expressive to terminological usage and are employed in both original and translated forms in Uzbek sports communication.
