The bilingualism phenomenon has long existed among people living in the territory of Uzbekistan, including Uzbeks, who are able to speak other languages in addition to their native language. Consequently linguistic and extralinguistic influences between the Arabic and Uzbek languages in Central Asia, in VII and VIII centuries it was formed the bilingualism phenomenon in the country. In the XIV-XV centuries, the Persian-Tajik language use in Central Asia expanded and its potential increased. By the XX century, unification of Central Asia to Russian Union, the Russian language influence on the Uzbek language increased. Uzbek-Russian bilingualism formed in Central Asia in parallel with the Uzbek-Arabic and Uzbek-Tajik bilingualism. By this, not only bilingualism, but also pluralinguism had grown significantly among the Uzbek people. Along with linguistic factors, extralinguistic factors also played an important role in Uzbek-Arabic, Uzbek-Tajik and Uzbek-Russian languages development. Within the independence years, the Uzbek language prestige has grown, its scope has expanded. However, some features aforecited languages are preserved in the Uzbek language structure, and these languages units are used in the lexical layer. Our people desire to learn languages is growing, other developed world languages are being studied, and the situation with multilingualism is growing. Similar aspects will be covered throughout the study.
