Abstract

This paper explores phonostylistic interference between the English and Uzbek phonetic systems, focusing on its implications for language learners. By analyzing specific instances where the phonetic elements of both languages impact each other, this study aims to highlight the challenges and potential strategies for overcoming pronunciation barriers in language acquisition.
