Объяснение
Form-building suffixes do not create new words. They are of two kinds. Lexical form-builders add extra meaning to the stem: plural (-lar), diminutive and endearment (-cha, -jon), adjective degree (-roq), the verb’s negation (-ma) and voice forms. Syntactic form-builders link a word to another word, so they are also called relational forms. They include possession (-im, -ing), case (-ga, -dan), person and number (-man, -siz), tense (-di) and mood suffixes.
Примеры
Lexical: kitob + -lar = kitoblar (books); xona + -cha = xonacha (little room); katta + -roq = kattaroq (bigger).
Syntactic: kitob + -im = kitobim (my book); maktab + -ga = maktabga (to school); o‘qi + -di = o‘qidi (read).
Работа в классе
“Two little boxes”: children sort suffix cards into “lexical” and “syntactic” boxes.
