Classification of Grammatical Tense in Uzbek Linguistics

Abstract

Some classification of grammatical tense in Uzbek linguistics have been studied in the article. Although the temporal category is one of the most studied topics, there is no consensus on the amount and classifica-tion of grammatical forms. Also, some classifications do not cover all gram-matical forms. One of the reasons for these differences in classifications is the fact that the categories of tense and mood are inextricably linked in the Uzbek language. In addition, the term present-future tense, separa- ted in classifications, has been interpreted differently by linguists. In world linguistics, the classification of tense is based on three points of time: the moment of speech (S), the reference time (R) and the moment of event (E). The grammatical tense in the Uzbek language is classified based on the SRE relations in the article.
