The purpose of the article is to consider a group of polysemantic words that are widely used in modern Tajik and Uzbek languages, but in different meanings, which is proven by specific examples. These are the words vatanparvar (patriot), daha (ten, decade, microdistrict), mumtoz (classic, excellent), oromgoh (resting place, grave, cemetery), sikhatgoh (sanatorium, resting place), tadbir (event), tadbirkor (businessman, entrepreneur), talaba (schoolboy, pupil, student), hodim (worker, activist, worker), khona (house, room, office), honanda (student, singer, reciter). It is substantiated that the lexical composition of living languages has time-specific features, because their individual words, depending on the current situation and the emerging conditions of the socio-economic and political environment, undergo changes in meaning, form and structure or become completely obsolete, which is a natural process of development of any language.
