oluvchi

Oluvchi is an Uzbek term formed as an agent noun from the verb ol-, meaning to take, receive, or obtain. The suffix -uvchi attaches to the verb stem to designate someone who performs the action, yielding a word that roughly translates as “one who takes” or “one who receives.” The exact nuance depends on the context in which it is used.

In practice, oluvchi can refer to a person who takes or receives something. In commercial or procurement contexts it can denote a buyer or purchaser. In logistics or deliveries it may indicate the recipient of goods or documents rather than the seller. In legal or administrative language, oluvchi may designate the party that receives payment, prizes, or rights, as opposed to the seller (sotuvchi) or payer.

The term is not the most common everyday word for “buyer” in Uzbek—xaridor is more typical—but oluvchi remains productive in formal, technical, or contract-language texts. It also illustrates a broader pattern in Uzbek grammar where agent nouns are formed by adding -uvchi to a verb stem.

Examples: In a contract, the oluvchi is responsible for receiving the goods specified by the agreement. A prize winner is the oluvchi of the award. In a shipping notice, the recipient or oluvchi is the party designated to take delivery.
