Abstract

Language reflects all aspects of a person who speaks it, including his thinking and psychology. Man-made language serves man and reflects all the peculiarities of man [1, p. 1156]. Synesthesia, which is a complex psychological and cognitive process, is also reflected in language. This article reveals the relationship of synesthesia to the formation of phonosemantics, the importance of studying the development of lexical meaning. It was found that synesthesia-based migrations in the Uzbek language are not simple analogies; they are the result of certain mental and cognitive processes.
