Key words: number, grammatical category, singular, plural, grammar, nounAbstract
Annotation: Language scientists refer to a grammatical category that
distinguishes between singular and plural nouns as "number" in their terminology. A
noun can be used to refer to one or more entities depending on its categorization.
Numerous languages have the idea of number, and nouns can change their forms to
reflect solitary or plural meanings. To guarantee appropriate agreement with other
elements of speech in a sentence, it is essential to understand and apply numbers
correctly. The purpose of this paper is to examine the opinions of Uzbek and English
language researchers on this linguistic idea. We seek to assess and highlight the
distinctions and parallels between the terminology and approaches used in the two
languages' literature by looking at pertinent theories and offering examples from each
language.
