Explanation
In analysing synonymy we determine the type of the conjunction-less composite sentence, the relation between its parts and its punctuation, and then convert it into another type of composite sentence. In converting, the conjunction is chosen by the relation: “lekin”, “ammo” for contrast, “chunki” or “shuning uchun” for reason, “agar” or the conditional (-sa) for condition. The punctuation changes too: a comma replaces the dash. To check that the meaning has not changed we compare the new sentence with the original. Sometimes conversion changes the meaning slightly, so we always watch the content.
Worked examples
Original: Sabr qil – murodga yetasan. 1) conjunction-less; 2) relation – condition; 3) dash. Conversion: Sabr qilsang, murodga yetasan. (subordinate, -sa).
Original: Bog‘ kichik – daraxti ko‘p. 1) conjunction-less; 2) contrast; 3) dash. Conversion: Bog‘ kichik, lekin daraxti ko‘p. (linked, adversative).
Class activity
“Converters”: groups take a conjunction-less sentence card, convert it to another type and prove the meaning is kept.
Practice
1
State the steps of converting a conjunction-less sentence into a subordinate one.
Determine the relation; choose a conjunction or the conditional; change the punctuation; check the meaning.
2
Rewrite “Hamma yig‘ildi – dars boshlandi” with “chunki” or “shuning uchun”.
Hamma yig‘ildi, shuning uchun dars boshlandi. (or: Dars boshlandi, chunki hamma yig‘ildi.)
3
Write “Ish oson – vaqt kam” with an adversative conjunction.
Ish oson, lekin vaqt kam.
4
Why do we check the meaning after conversion?
Because different conjunctions may change the relation slightly.
