In Uzbek language numbers from 1 to 10 are unique words. But numbers from 11 and upwards are formed by using the following pattern: for example 11 can be formed by using 10 + 1 while connecting them, 12 can be formed by using 10 + 2 and so on. 4.1.


Ordinal numbers in Uzbek language tell the order of things and their rank: my first teacher.


They tell the order of things in a set: first, second, third, etc.


Ordinal numbers do not show quantity. Ordinal numbers are formed by help of suffix – nchi or –inchi after consonants.


In the sentences they look like Number+nchi/inchi + Noun.


For example:

  • Mening birinchi o’qituvchim.- My first teacher.

If it is a compound numeral then each numeral is written separately.


For example:

  • Yigirma birinchi uy. – House [number] twenty one.
