== Personal Pronouns ==


=== Personal Pronouns ===
Personal pronouns in Northern Uzbek can be categorized as either subject pronouns or object pronouns. Subject pronouns are used for the subject of the sentence while object pronouns are used for the object.


Personal pronouns are used to refer to people or things. In Northern Uzbek, there are three types of personal pronouns: subject pronouns, object pronouns, and reflexive pronouns.
{| class="wikitable"
! Northern Uzbek !! Pronunciation !! English
|-
| Мен || /mɛːn/ || I/me
|-
| Сен || /t͡sɛn/ || You
|-
| У || /u/ || He/him
|-
| У || /u/ || She/her
|-
| Биз || /biz/ || We/us
|-
| Сиз || /siz/ || You (formal)
|-
| Улар || /ulɑr/ || They/them
|}


Subject pronouns are used when the pronoun is the subject of the sentence. For example:
=== Examples ===


* I am going to the store.
* Person 1: Мен китоб ўқиман (Men kitob oʻqiman) (I am reading a book)
* He is eating lunch.
* Person 2: Сен қандай китоб ўқиман? (Sen qanday kitob oʻqiman?) (What book are you reading?)
* She is studying for her exam.


Object pronouns are used when the pronoun is the object of the sentence. For example:
== Possessive Pronouns ==


* I saw him.  
Possessive pronouns in Northern Uzbek indicate ownership or possession. They function as adjectives and replace the noun that they modify.  
* She gave it to me.
* They heard us.  


Reflexive pronouns are used when the pronoun is referring back to the subject of the sentence. For example:
{| class="wikitable"
! Northern Uzbek !! Pronunciation !! English
|-
| Менинг || /mɛːniŋ/ || My/mine
|-
| Сенинг || /t͡sɛniŋ/ || Your/yours
|-
| Унинг || /u.niŋ/ || His/his
|-
| Унинг || /u.niŋ/ || Her/hers
|-
| Бизнинг || /biz.niŋ/ || Our/ours
|-
| Сизнинг || /siz.niŋ/ || Your/yours (formal)
|-
| Уларнинг || /ulɑr.niŋ/ || Their/theirs
|}


* I hurt myself.
=== Examples ===
* She bought herself a new dress.
* They enjoyed themselves.


=== Possessive Pronouns ===
* Person 1: Менинг китобингман (Meniŋ kitobingman) (This is my book)
* Person 2: Сенинг китобингча ўқийман (Seniŋ kitobingcha oʻqiyman) (I am reading your book)


Possessive pronouns are used to indicate ownership or possession. In Northern Uzbek, there are two types of possessive pronouns: possessive adjectives and possessive pronouns.
== Reflexive Pronouns ==


Possessive adjectives are used to modify a noun. For example:
Reflexive pronouns in Northern Uzbek show that the subject and the object of the sentence are the same. The reflexive pronoun is formed by adding the suffix "-сиз" ("-siz") to the end of the possessive pronoun.


* My book
{| class="wikitable"
* His car
! Northern Uzbek !! Pronunciation !! English
* Her house
|-
| Менинг узим || /mɛːniŋ uzim/ || Myself
|-
| Сенинг узин || /t͡sɛniŋ uzin/ || Yourself (singular)
|-
| Унинг узи || /u.niŋ uzi/ || Himself/herself/itself
|-
| Бизнинг узимиз || /biz.niŋ uzimiz/ || Ourselves
|-
| Сизнинг узингиз || /siz.niŋ uzingiz/ || Yourselves
|-
| Уларнинг узилари || /ulɑr.niŋ uzilari/ || Themselves
|}


Possessive pronouns are used to replace a noun. For example:
=== Examples ===


* The book is mine.
* Person 1: Менинг узимни юйда газета ўқийда (Meniŋ uzimni uyda gazeta oʻqiyda) (I read a newspaper at home myself)
* The car is his.
* Person 2: Менинг узимга ўқишни оқитгансизми? (Meniŋ uzimga oʻqishni oʻqitgansizmi?) (Did you teach me how to read myself?)
* The house is hers.


== Forming Pronouns ==
== Interrogative Pronouns ==


In Northern Uzbek, pronouns are formed by adding suffixes to the root word. For example, the root word for "I" is "man", and the suffix "-am" is added to form the pronoun "manam" (I).  
Interrogative pronouns in Northern Uzbek are used in questions to ask for information.  


The following table shows the suffixes used to form pronouns in Northern Uzbek:
{| class="wikitable"
! Northern Uzbek !! Pronunciation !! English
|-
| ким || /kim/ || Who
|-
| қай || /qɑj/ || Where
|-
| қандай || /qɑndɑj/ || What kind of
|-
| неча || /net͡ʃɑ/ || How many
|}
 
=== Examples ===
 
* Person 1: Ким буни ёзган? (Kim buni yozgan?) (Who wrote this?)
* Person 2: Биз киста ёздик (Biz kista yozdik) (We wrote it in a notebook)
 
== Demonstrative Pronouns ==
 
Demonstrative pronouns in Northern Uzbek indicate a specific noun or pronoun.


{| class="wikitable"
{| class="wikitable"
! Northern Uzbek !! Pronunciation !! English
|-
|-
! Subject !! Object !! Reflexive !! Possessive Adjective !! Possessive Pronoun
| бу || /bu/ || This
|-
|-

| ушбу || /uʃ.bu/ || This (near the listener)
|-
|-
| senam || seni || sen || senim || sening
| şu || /ʃu/ || That
|-
|-
| u || uni || u || uyim || uning
| ун || /un/ || That (near the listener)
|}
 
=== Examples ===
 
* Person 1: Бу пиёзда чой ичилади (Bu piyozda choy ichiladi) (We drink tea in this cup/on this plate)
* Person 2: Бу қаердан олдин олинган? (Bu qayerdan oldin olingan?) (Where was this taken from?)
 
== Relative Pronouns ==
 
Relative pronouns in Northern Uzbek relate a clause to a noun, which is called the antecedent or referent.
 
{| class="wikitable"
! Northern Uzbek !! Pronunciation !! English
|-
| янги || /jɑngi/ || Which/that (describing a singular, masculine noun)
|-
|-
| biz || bizni || biz || bizim || bizning
| янги || /jɑngi/ || Which/that (describing a singular, feminine noun)
|-
|-
| ular || ularni || ular || ularim || ularning
| янгилар || /jɑngilɑr/ || Which/that (describing a plural, masculine/feminine noun)
|}
|}


For example, the pronoun "he" is formed by adding the suffix "-u" to the root word "u". Therefore, the pronoun "he" is "u".  
=== Examples ===
 
* Person 1: Менинг оңгил кара-коҳ гулчиларидан баҳорчилар овқатланди (Meniŋ oʻngil kara-koʻh gulchilaridan bahorchilar ovqatlandi) (Spring came to my father's black and white violets)
* Person 2: Янгилар кимлардир? (Yangilar kimlardir?) (Who are these new people?)
