3.3. Typology of Grammatical Categories in English and Native Languages

Grammatical category is the system opposed to each other grammatical forms with similar values. Members of the same grammatical category is the general grammatical meaning and differ in connotation.

Grammatical categories are subdivided into morphological and syntactic. Among the morphological categories are distinguished, for example, the kind of grammatical categories, tense, mood, person, gender, number, case; consistent expression of these categories are characterized by the whole grammatical word classes (parts of speech).
Grammatical categories in different languages ​​with a strong word formation, ie such members can be represented by the forms of the same word within its paradigm (for example, in the Russian language - the tense, the inclination, the number of the verb, number, case, gender adjectives degrees of comparison).
Word changing, ie such that the members can not be represented forms of the same word (for example, in the Russian language - the genus and animation / inanimation nouns).
Also, grammatical categories are distinguished as:
1) revealed a syntactically (relational), ie pointing especially to the compatibility of the forms as part of the phrase or sentence (for example, in the Russian language - gender, case)
2) non-syntactical detected (referential, nominative), ie expressed primarily different semantic abstraction, abstracted from properties, connections and relationships extralinguistic reality (for example, in the Russian language - the kind of time)
Such grammatical category as for example, the number or the person can combine features of both these types.
According to prof. Buranov, grammatical categories can be divided into two:

1. 
   Primary grammatical categories or grammatical macrocategories
   
2. 
   Secondary grammatical categories or grammatical microcategories.
   

Parts of speech or lexico-grammatic groups of words are primary grammatical categories.
As it is known classification of parts of speech in compared languages can be identified according to the following features of lexemes:

1. 
   Lexical and grammatical meaning
   
2. 
   Generalization of morphologic forms for a certain word groups
   
3. 
   According to the function of words in the sentences.
   

Every words of a certain part of speech has its own morphological forms, these forms contain morphological paradigm and can be connected with a certain grammatical categories. For instance, in English the inflection –s can represent category of number and –ed of the verb can represent tense category and etc [Buranov, 1973, 101].
Secondary grammatical categories are units of grammatical meaning and grammatical forms.
Any grammatical category (the category of gender, category number, category of case, etc.) in each word has a specific content. For example, the category of gender, a noun category, in the words of the книга (book) reveals that this noun is a feminine noun in Russian; category or type, for example, the verb рисовать (to draw) has specific content - a verb imperfective. These meanings of words are called grammatical meanings. Therefore, every word can have a number of grammatical meanings, for example, in the Russian verb бежал the following grammatical meanings can be observed: past tense meaning, singular, masculine category of gender, unfinished form.
Grammatical meanings are expressed by a specific means of language. For example: the meaning of the 1st person singular of the Russian verb пишу is expressed by the ending -y, and the general meaning of the instrumental case of the word лесом is expressed by th ending -ом. These expressions of grammatical meanings with external language means called grammatical forms. Consequently, the form of the word is a variation of the same word, differentiated from each other with grammatical meanings. Beyond the grammatical form, there is no grammatical meaning. Grammatical meanings ​​can be expressed not only by morphological changes of words, but also by means of other words, with which it is associated in the sentence. For example, in the Russian sentences Он купил пальто and Он был в пальто the form of the word пальто (coat) is the same, but in the first case it has the grammatical meaning of the accusative case, and in the second - the prepositional. These meanings ​​are formed with different connections of the word with other words in the sentence.
Moreover, according to the structure grammatical forms can be subdivided into synthetic form and analytical form.
The main difference between synthetic form and analytical form is that synthetic forms can be formed with the help of affixal grammatic morphemes (like morphemes of aspect, tense, mood, voice, person, number and perfect categories) while analytic forms are formed with link verbs.
In the following examples of comparison of secondary grammatical categories grammatical meaning and grammatical forms can be identified.
In English, Russian and Uzbek languages, plurality is the category of the noun, pronoun and verb, which means a great number of something or someone. For example, these books are interesting – бу китоблар қизиқарли – эти книги интересны.
All compared languages have some nouns, which are never used in plural form such as love, friendship, hate – любовь, дружба – муҳаббат, дўстлик.
The verbs of compared languages are able to indicate the plurality.
