Tajik-Uzbek Contact Morphophonology: Case-Marker Variation and Persian-Tajik Derivational Affixes in Uzbek

This article analyzes morphophonological variation in Tajik-Uzbek contact settings. It describes (i) interference-driven competition between Uzbek case markers in bilingual zones and (ii) the integration of Persian-Tajik derivational affixes and affixoids into Uzbek word formation. Using a comparative descriptive approach, the study shows how contact weakens strict native conditioning and creates hybrid formations shaped by both donor patterns and Uzbek phonotactics.
