The article dwells on the problem of noun polysemy in English and Tajik languages. It is noted that the problem of polysemy is one of the central problems of semasiology. The lexical and lexico-grammatical aspects of this phenomenon have been comprehensively analyzed in scientific research. Despite a number of researches of polysemy, some of its aspects have not been fully studied and require further study. This article discusses the issue of polysemy of nouns in English and Tajik. It is mentioned that the polysemy of nouns in both languages depends on the group of nouns and each word can have multiple meanings. Accordingly, it has been established that in both languages the mentioned groups of nouns have greater semantic activity. The meanings of nouns are mainly understood from context. Isomorphic and allomorphic features of this phenomenon are identified, knowledge of which will significantly help to study the language.
