Oilalarini

Oilalarini is a grammatical form in Uzbek used to express “their families” as a direct object. It results from combining a plural noun for families (oilalar) with the third-person plural possessive suffix (-lari) and the accusative case marker (-ni), yielding the sequence that ends in ini. In practice, oilalarini denotes a noun phrase that belongs to “them” and is the object of the verb.

Morphology and formation are typical of Uzbek noun phrases: oilalar is the plural of oila (family). The possessive suffix -lari marks third-person plural ownership (their), and -ni marks the definite direct object. The full form oilalarini therefore translates to “their families” in the accusative.

Usage notes: Oilalarini appears when the speaker refers to their families as the thing affected by an action. For example, Oilalarini ko'rdim means “I saw their families.” This form is common in narrative and descriptive sentences where theFamilies are the object of the verb. Uzbek word order tends to place the object before the verb, which helps identify oilalarini as the direct object even in longer clauses.
