hududida

Hududida is a locative possessive form in the Uzbek language, used to mean “in its territory” or “within the boundaries of.” It is built from the noun hudud (region, territory) plus the possessive suffix -i to form hududi (its territory), and the locative suffix -da to indicate location, yielding hududida. The construction is common in geographic, administrative, and legal contexts to specify where an action occurs or where something exists.

Grammatical function and usage

Hududida marks location inside the territorial limits of a person, state, organization, city, or other defined entity. It often accompanies proper nouns or definite noun phrases, such as country names or city names, to express location within that entity’s borders. It can appear in narrative, official documents, and descriptive text to clarify where something happens or is located.

Examples in Uzbek

- O‘zbekiston hududida ko‘plab tabiiy resurslar mavjud. (There are many natural resources within the territory of Uzbekistan.)

- Shahrning hududida obodonlashish ishlari yakunlandi. (Urban development works were completed within the city’s territory.)

Notes

Hududida is distinct from hududda, which generally means “in a territory” without specifying ownership or affiliation. The form hududi refers to “its territory” as a noun phrase, while hududida situates that territory inside a location. The construction is flexible for referring to various kinds of jurisdictions, from countries and cities to organizational domains.
