As a handy reference for Uzbek learners, here is a brief table I put together for CLI Intermediate Uzbek class that includes all the forms (past, present, and future systems) used in modern standard Uzbek. (More reference on verb and other grammatical element listings available at this link.)
Form | O‘zbek | English |
infinitive | bormoq | to go |
present/future simple | boraman | I go, I will go |
present progressive | boryapman | I am going |
imperfect/past indefinite | borganman | I have gone, I went |
past definite | bordim | I went |
past continuous | borayotgan edim | I was going |
pluperfect/past perfect | borgan edim | I had gone |
past intention | bormoqchi edim | I had intended to go |
past habitual | borar edim | I used to go |
past inferential | boribman | I supposedly went |
past obligatory | boradigan bo’ldim | I had to go |
future intention | bormoqchiman | I will go, I intend to go |
future possibility | borarman | Maybe I will go |
Feel free to download and print this reference list using this Google Doc. Enjoy!
