sonlarni

Sonlarni is a grammatical form in Uzbek that functions as the definite accusative plural of the noun son, which means numbers. In Uzbek, nouns can take suffixes to indicate whether they are plural and whether they are definite objects of a verb. The combination of the plural suffix -lar and the definite direct object suffix -ni yields the form sonlarni, used when referring to “the numbers” as a specific object.

Morphology and usage patterns: The base noun is son (number). To form the plural, -lar is added to get sonlar (numbers). To mark a definite direct object, the suffix -ni is attached, resulting in sonlarni. This structure shows how determiner and number agreement are handled within a noun phrase in Uzbek. The form is typically used when the numbers are the object of a verb or are being specified within a larger clause.

Contexts and examples: Sonlarni appears in mathematical, statistical, educational, or analytical contexts where a speaker refers to specific numbers. Examples include discussing data sets, results, or quantities. For instance, one might say, Men sonlarni ko'rganman, meaning “I have seen the numbers,” or Biz sonlarni tahlil qildik, meaning “We analyzed the numbers.”

Relation to related terms: The base form son means both “number” and, in some contexts, “age.” The term sonlarni contrasts with forms like sonlar (numbers in a non-definite or subject role) and with other case forms of the same word. Together they illustrate Uzbek noun morphology and how definiteness and plurality interact in practice.
