This article examines the sociolinguistic characteristics of dialectal words in English and Uzbek languages through a comparative and analytical approach. Dialects, as a crucial component of linguistic diversity, not only reflect geographical variation but also encode complex social meanings such as class affiliation, regional identity, and cultural belonging. The research focuses on how dialectal vocabulary in both languages functions as a marker of social communication, revealing the historical and cultural background of the speakers. English dialects are often associated with class distinctions and regional heritage, while Uzbek dialects embody ethnic traditions, historical continuity, and local cultural values. The paper also investigates the influence of globalization and mass communication on the preservation and transformation of dialectal forms. By analyzing phonetic, lexical, and semantic features, this study contributes to a deeper understanding of how language variation mirrors social stratification and cultural identity in two linguistically and culturally distinct contexts.
