Voice refers to the relationship between the subject and the action expressed by
the verb in a sentence. Both English and Uzbek have active and passive voice
constructions, but there are some key differences in how voice is expressed
grammatically.In English, the active and passive voice are formed using auxiliary verbs
(e.g. "The dog chased the cat" vs. "The cat was chased by the dog"). In Uzbek, voice
is indicated through verbal affixes rather than auxiliary verbs.Another difference is that
Uzbek has a broader range of voice categories beyond just active and passive, including
reflexive, reciprocal, and causative voices. These voice forms are created through the
addition of specific suffixes to the verb stem.Despite these differences, both languages
utilize voice to shift the focus and emphasis in a sentence. Understanding the voice
systems in each language is important for proper grammatical construction and
conveyance of meaning.
