oqituvchilarda

Oqituvchilarda is a locative plural form in Uzbek that means “in/among the teachers.” It is used to refer to a group of teachers as the location, reference point, or social context of a statement. The phrase indicates that something is happening within or among teachers, rather than with students or the general public.

Morphology and formation: The base word is oqituvchi (teacher). Its plural is oqituvchilar (teachers). To form the locative plural, the suffix -lar is followed by -da, yielding -larda. Thus oqituvchilar + -da = oqituvchilarda. This construction is common for signaling location in discussions about a professional or social group.

Usage and nuances: Oqituvchilarda is used in academic, educational, and journalistic Uzbek to discuss matters that concern teachers as a group. It can indicate where an event occurred, where opinions are being shared, or where certain phenomena are observed within that cohort.

Examples:

- Oqituvchilarda yangi o‘qituv metodlarini joriy etish bo‘yicha seminar o‘tkazildi. (A seminar was held among teachers on implementing new teaching methods.)

- O‘quvchilarning natijalari oqituvchilarda keng muhokama qilindi. (The students’ results were widely discussed among teachers.)

- Oqituvchilarda xavfsizlik madaniyati haqida so‘z yuritildi. (There was talk among teachers about safety culture.)

Note: Oqituvchilarda differs from oqituvchilar (teachers) and from constructions meaning “with teachers” (oqituvchilar bilan) or “in the classroom with teachers” (o‘qituvchida). It specifically locates reference to the group of teachers as a collective.
