bolmoq

Bolmoq is the transliteration of the Uzbek verb bo‘lmoq, written with the apostrophe in standardized Uzbek orthography. It is commonly described as meaning “to become” or “to come into being.” In Uzbek grammar, bo‘lmoq is an intransitive verb used to express a change of state, development, or the process of coming into a new condition. It integrates with other parts of the verbal system to convey different tenses, aspects, and sometimes eventual outcomes.

Etymology and form: bo‘lmoq belongs to the Turkic family of verbs and shares a common root associated with existence or becoming. The infinitive form ends with -moq, a typical non-finite marker in Uzbek. Through standard verb conjugation, bo‘lmoq participates in constructions that indicate ongoing change, potential future states, or completed transitions, depending on the surrounding auxiliary forms and suffixes.

Usage: The verb is versatile in both everyday speech and literary Uzbek. It can describe gradual development (for example, a state that is in the process of changing) or a future or hypothetical becoming. Bo‘lmoq often appears in periphrastic phrases where it combines with other verbs or adjectives to express what something or someone is in the course of becoming.
