Teaching methods of the uzbek language for russian speakers

Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: Teaching uzbek to russian speakers is a crucial topic in Uzbekistan and other Central Asian countries, where a significant portion of the population speaks Russian as their first or second language. Since uzbek and russian belong to entirely different language families—uzbek being a turkic language and russian an indo-european language—the process of learning uzbek can be challenging for russian speakers. These languages differ significantly in phonetics, grammar, sentence structure, and vocabulary. For example, russian has six grammatical cases and relies on inflection, while uzbek is an agglutinative language where meaning is expressed through suffixes. Moreover, uzbek follows a subject-object-verb (SOV) word order, whereas russian typically uses a subject-verb-object (SVO) structure. Such differences require a strategic and methodical approach to language teaching.
