Abstract:

This book is a theoretically oriented, comparative study of noun phrases and
their semantic and morpho-syntactic properties. This is the first study that
provides a comprehensive analysis of the nominal structure in Uzbek, and
compares it with corresponding structures in other article and article-less
languages. Uzbek nominals represent a fertile ground to test the universality
of the DP hypothesis and to make an insightful contribution to an ongoing
debate about the functional architecture of the nominal domain in languages
with and without articles. The study shows that the ordering of various
nominal suffixes in Uzbek reflects a rich functional structure, involving not
only DP but also KP. The work also discusses elements such as determiners,
demonstratives, quantifiers and adjectives, and positioning of these elements
within the nominal domain. This study is especially useful for researchers
interested in theoretical linguistics, comparative syntax and typology.
