PREFACE 
Comparative typology of various related and unrelated languages is one of 
the significant achievements of Uzbek linguistics, therefore, the introduction of a 
new theoretical course “Comparative typology of the native and studied foreign 
language” as a compulsory discipline for philological institutes of the country is 
quite natural. This textbook is intended for undergraduate students studying in 
the direction of 5111400 - Foreign language and literature (English). Moreover, 
the textbook may well be used in the training of masters in the subject of 
comparative typology of the native and studied foreign language. 
Students should study this discipline after they have acquired sufficient 
theoretical training in a number of disciplines: general linguistics, theoretical 
phonetics, theoretical grammar, lexicology, history of language, stylistics, 
translation study, etc.
The purpose of this textbook is to acquaint future philologists, teachers of 
Uzbek-speaking audiences, with the system features of their native and studied 
foreign language – English, with basic principles of comparing language systems, 
to help novice linguists to develop a theoretically sound methodology for teaching 
a foreign language. 
The textbook consists of 3 chapters. The first chapter is devoted to the 
problems of the theoretical base of research in the field of linguistic typology. 
The second chapter reveals the typological differences and similarities of the 
English and Uzbek languages. The third chapter explains the significance of the 
results of typological analysis in teaching a foreign language and translation 
studies. In other words, this textbook examines all main sections of a comparative 
typology: the basic concepts of linguistic typology, comparative typology as a 
special section of linguistic typology, phonological typology, morphological 
typology, lexical typology and syntactic typology, the relationship between the 
methodology of teaching a foreign language and translation problems. Each 
section includes a list of key concepts; linguistic units undergo a detailed,

multidimensional analysis; theoretical positions are illustrated by vivid and 
convincing examples from various scientific sources.
It should be noted that this textbook is written based on the textbooks and 
monographs created by prominent scholars in the field of comparative and 
contrastive linguistics such as V.D.Arakin, J.B.Buranov, A.A.Abduazizov, 
U.K.Yusupov, etc. 
The textbook will be useful and very timely publication not only for 
graduate students and undergraduates but also for teachers, philologists,
