Forming adverbs. Root and derived adverbs
Adverbs are root or derived. Adverbs with no word-forming suffix are root adverbs: tez (fast), sekin (slowly), juda (very), hozir (now), ko‘p (much), oz (little). Adverbs made of a base and a forming part are derived: kechalab (for nights), do‘stona (in a friendly way), tasodifan (by chance), o‘zbekcha (in Uzbek). Derived adverbs arise by adding a suffix, by pairing or repeating a base, or by joining two bases: birma-bir (one by one), erta-indin (tomorrow and the day after), katta-katta, bugun (today). By structure adverbs are simple, compound, paired or repeated.
