Abstract
The phenomenon of lexical borrowing is a significant aspect of language evolution, reflecting the cultural and societal interactions between communities. This study examines the borrowings of English sports terms in the Karakalpak language, focusing on the linguistic adaptations and semantic shifts that occur during the process. Through a comprehensive analysis of borrowed terms, their usage patterns, and socio-cultural contexts, this research sheds light on the dynamics of language contact and the influence of global sporting culture on minority languages such as Karakalpak. Data was collected from various sources including sports events, media, and interviews with native speakers. The findings reveal intriguing linguistic phenomena and contribute to our understanding of language contact and lexical innovation in multilingual environments.
