This article investigates the cognitive-discursive characteristics of syntactic homonyms in the Uzbek language. The phenomenon of syntactic homonymy encompasses structural forms that allow a sentence to be interpreted in multiple ways. The study examines the causes underlying the emergence of syntactic homonyms, their cognitive functions within discursive environments, and the interpretive mechanisms operative at the textual level. The research employs an integrated methodology drawing on cognitive linguistics and discourse analysis. The findings contribute new insights to the theory of Uzbek grammar and language use.
