Abstract

This article is devoted to the study of the phonological features of consonantism (the system of consonants) and vocalism (the system of vowel sounds). The paper analyzes issues such as the distinctive (differential) function of vowel and consonant phonemes within the language system, their phonological oppositions, interphonemic relations, and their identification through minimal pairs. In addition, the article highlights the interaction and harmony between the systems of vocalism and consonantism in the phonemic system of the Uzbek language, as well as their role in phonological norms. The article is useful for teachers, linguists, and students studying the fields of phonetics and phonology.
