This article analyzes the semantic differentiation of word-forming suffixes in the Uzbek language and their conversional relations. The study explains the synonymic, functional, stylistic, and semantic interchangeability of suffixes with illustrative examples. The synonymic relations of affixes such as -dor // -li // ser-, -gar // -chi, -lik // -chilik // -garchilik are discussed, as well as the tendency of functionally weakened suffixes to approach formal markers. Dialectal and stylistic alternations, along with changes in suffixes during the historical development of the language, are also examined. As a result, it is demonstrated that suffixal conversion enriches the vocabulary, diversifies expressive possibilities in speech, and strengthens the relationship between the literary language and dialects.
