This article delves into the fascinating world of folk medicine terminology, exploring the lexical units used to describe traditional healthcare practices in English and Uzbek languages. Through a comparative analysis, we investigate the morphological and semantic processes that underlie the formation and development of these terms. The study also examines the borrowing of terminology between languages and explores the cultural contexts that influence the creation and use of folk medicine terms. Our findings highlight the importance of understanding the historical and cultural underpinnings of folk medicine terminology, fostering a deeper appreciation for the richness and diversity of traditional healthcare systems.
