Adjectives with that are formed with suffix – li.


In Uzbek in order to form a descriptive adjective one can add suffix “-li” to the noun.

For example:

  • yomg’ir (rain)
  • yomg’irli (rainy).

Often, verbs like yog’moq and esmoq are used with nouns to describe the weather patterns. For example:


  • yomg’ir – rain, yog’moq – to fall
  • yomg’ir yog’yapti – it’s raining

or

  • shamol – wind, esmoq – to blow
  • shamol esadi – it’s windy

For example:

  • O’zbekistonda odatda qachon qor yog’adi (snows)? – Dekabrda Qaysi oylarda yomg’ir ko’p yog’adi? – Martda va aprelda.


The verb bo’lmoq is used to describe weather patterns that are habitual, usual. For example: O’zbekistonda qish sovuq bo’ladi, yomg’ir bilan qor yog’adi. – Winter season in Uzbekistan is cold, rainy and snowy.
