Don't miss the chance to check out these pages as you wrap up this lesson: Negation & Questions.
Present Tense[edit | edit source]
In Southern Uzbek, we use the verb "bo'l-" to indicate the present tense of the verb "be". The verb can be used to describe the subject and to form a statement. Let's take a look at the examples:
Southern Uzbek | Pronunciation | English |
---|---|---|
Men o'qituvchiman. | men o'qituvchiman | I am a teacher. |
Siz talaba bo'lsiz. | siz talaba bo'lsiz | You are a student. |
U yaxshi odam. | u yaxshi odam | He is a good person. |
Biz do'stimiz. | biz do'stimiz | We are friends. |
Siz vaqtingizni sarflamadingiz. | siz vaqtingizni sarfla-ma-din-giz | You did not waste your time. |
U o'qituvchi bo'lib ketdi. | u o'qituv-chi bo-lib ket-di | He became a teacher. |
As you can see, we add the suffix "-man", "-siz", "-dir" to the end of the verb "bo'l-" to describe the subject. To form a negative sentence, we add the negative particle "emas" after "bo'l-". For example, "Men o'qituvchi emasman" means "I am not a teacher".
Past Tense[edit | edit source]
In the past tense, we use the verb "bo'ldi" to indicate the past form of the verb "be". Let's see how it is used in the sentences below:
Southern Uzbek | Pronunciation | English |
---|---|---|
Men o'qituvchi bo'ldim. | men o'qituvchi bo'l-dim | I was a teacher. |
Siz talaba bo'lgan edingiz. | siz talaba bo'l-gan e-din-giz | You were a student. |
U yaxshi odam edi. | u yaxshi odam e-di | He was a good person. |
Biz do'stlar edik. | biz do'st-lar e-dik | We were friends. |
Siz vaqtingizni sarflamagan edingiz. | siz vaqtingizni sarflama-gan e-din-giz | You did not waste your time. |
U o'qituvchi bo'lib ketgan edi. | u o'qituv-chi bo-lib ket-gan e-di | He had become a teacher. |
As you can see, we add the past tense suffix "-dim", "-dingiz", "-di" to the end of the verb "bo'ldi" to describe the subject. To form a negative sentence, we add the negative particle "emas" after "bo'ldi". For example, "Men o'qituvchi bo'l-ma-dim" means "I was not a teacher".
Dialogue[edit | edit source]
Let's practice our newly learned verbs with a conversation between two friends:
- Person 1: Nima qilayapsiz? (What are you doing?)
- Person 2: Kitob o'qiyapman. Siz? (I am reading a book. And you?)
- Person 1: Ishlayapman. (I am working.)
Conclusion[edit | edit source]
In conclusion, using the verb "be" is an essential part of Southern Uzbek grammar. By mastering its use, we can properly describe and identify the subject of the sentence. Remember to practice and to use the correct suffixes and particles for each tense.
