EXPRESSING CAUSATIVE RELATIONSHIPS IN VERBS

Abstract

ABSTRACT

Verbs - verbs of state in the Uzbek language are distinguished not only by typical intransitivity, but also by transitivity, and have peculiar semantic features. It is for this reason, i.e. transitivity, that they have an object actant. This actant of transitive state verbs contributes to the manifestation of causative relations.

Causative attitudes in speech are expressed in several ways. 1.Semantic causative. 2.Morphological causative. These causatives are observed in state verbs with integral semes “duration”, “result of action”, “execution”, “movement”, “imagery”, “biological”, “physiological” and “mental”.

Key words: stative verbs, transitivity, object, causative relations, semantic causative, morphological causative, voice, forced voice.
