This study explores cross-linguistic interference among Uzbek university students learning English and German. Fifty-two first-year students (26 per group) were observed over one semester. Four main interference types emerged: phonological (substituting Uzbek sounds), orthographic (expecting one-to-one spelling?sound match), morphosyntactic (difficulty with articles, word order, gender), and cognitive (word-for-word translation). Both groups showed similar patterns, reflecting structural contrasts between Uzbek and Indo-European languages. The findings stress targeted instruction to improve pronunciation, grammar, and L2 thinking.
