This article comprehensively analyzes one of the pressing

issues in modern linguistics - the process of terminologization - using

ICT (Information and Communication Technologies) terms in

French and Uzbek as examples. The research aims to determine the

mechanism by which common vocabulary transforms into scientific

and technical terms, and to identify the linguistic, semantic, and

functional features of this process. Evaluating terminologization as a

natural stage of language development, the article demonstrates how

words become terminological units through narrowing, expansion,

metaphorical or metonymic semantic changes in a new socio-

technological context. The study employs a functional-semantic

approach, component analysis, and draws upon the theoretical

perspectives of linguists such as Mednikova, Lopushanskaya, and

Kabakchi. Additionally, it highlights the role of terminologization in

translation, the creation of bilingual corpora, and international

scientific communication. The analysis of ICT terms in French and

Uzbek provides insight into interdisciplinary integration and the

growth of technological culture through language.

According to the research findings, terminologization is not

only a linguistic process but also a cognitive and cultural one, playing

a crucial role in language renewal, enriching scientific thought, and

forming a unified terminological system for global communication.

Consequently, the article cohesively explores the lexical-semantic,

cultural, and communicative aspects of this phenomenon.
