Beruvchi

Beruvchi is a noun in Uzbek that denotes a person or entity that gives or provides something. It is formed from the verb ber- "to give" with the agent-noun suffix -uvchi. This suffix is productive in Uzbek and other Turkic languages, and it is used to turn verbs into nouns that identify the doer of the action.

In everyday Uzbek, beruvchi combines with other nouns and adjectives to form common compound terms that name roles or services. Examples include xizmat beruvchi (service provider), ma'lumot beruvchi (data or information provider or informant), and yetkazib beruvchi (supplier or deliverer). The sense is typically neutral and descriptive, indicating function rather than personal identity. The word can also appear in business and legal language to designate an institution or person that provides a service or goods.

In grammar, beruvchi belongs to a broader class of agent nouns formed with the suffix -uvchi, which also yields words such as yozuvchi (writer), o'rgatuvchi (teacher/trainer), oluvchi (receiver). The same suffix is productive in many Turkic languages, contributing to a rich set of related terms.

Beruvchi can also function as a surname or appear in proper noun formations, depending on context. As with many Uzbek agent-noun formations, its meaning is largely determined by the head noun it attaches to and the surrounding phrase.
