Объяснение
By function there are two types of suffix. Word-building suffixes make a new word with a new meaning from a stem: oq + -la = oqla (to whiten), gul + -chi = gulchi (flower grower). Form-building suffixes do not create a new word; they change the word’s form, adding extra meaning or linking it to another word: gul + -lar = gullar (more than one). An easy test for a word-building suffix: could the result be a separate dictionary entry? Gulchi is its own word, while gullar is just a form of gul.
Примеры
Word-building: bog‘ + -bon = bog‘bon (gardener); foyda + -li = foydali (useful).
Form-building: maktab + -ga = maktabga (to school); kitob + -im = kitobim (my book).
Работа в классе
“Two baskets”: children sort cards of words with suffixes into a “new word” basket and a “form” basket.
