Translating legal terminology presents unique linguistic challenges due to the specificity of legal concepts and cultural influences. This article explores the linguistic challenges in translating legal terminology between English and Uzbek, emphasizing the role of cultural influences. Key aspects include the complexity of legal language, the absence of direct equivalents, and the impact of differing legal systems. The study employs a comparative analysis to highlight specific terminological discrepancies and their implications for translators. The findings underscore the necessity for translators to possess not only linguistic skills but also a deep understanding of both legal systems and cultural contexts.
