Abstract

This article examines the principles of forming students’ metalinguistic competencies in the process of teaching “Uzbek and English” and “English” classes. The study emphasizes the importance of developing learners’ awareness of language as a system, enabling them to analyze, compare, and reflect on linguistic structures across two languages. Particular attention is paid to the methodological approaches that foster metalinguistic skills, such as contrastive analysis, bilingual techniques, and communicative-cognitive strategies. The research highlights how the integration of these principles enhances students’ critical thinking, linguistic awareness, and ability to transfer knowledge between languages. The findings demonstrate that well-structured metalinguistic competence contributes to the overall effectiveness of language learning and supports students in becoming more independent and reflective language users.
