This article presents a semantic classification and lexical grouping of the specialized terminology associated with do‘ppichilik—the craft of making do‘ppi (traditional Uzbek skullcaps). Focusing on structural, functional, and ornamental terms, the study reveals how do‘ppi-related vocabulary reflects both historical continuity and contemporary innovation. The analysis underscores the influence of Persian, Arabic, and Turkic linguistic elements, along with morphological processes such as loanword integration and hybrid forms. By examining registers used by artisans, educators, and everyday speakers, the article highlights how this terminology conveys nuanced technical knowledge and cultural values. Through an exploration of traditional motifs, color palettes, and embroidery techniques, the research demonstrates how each component of do‘ppichilik vocabulary embodies broader social, religious, and artistic meanings. Ultimately, this study emphasizes the importance of documenting and revitalizing craft-specific language to preserve the intangible heritage that underpins cultural identity and fosters intergenerational continuity.
