This thesis presents a comparative analysis of the category of the verb in the
English and Uzbek languages. The study examines the expression of grammatical
meanings in both languages, accounting for their typological distinctions. English
verbs are primarily characterized by analytical structures, whereas Uzbek verbs rely on
agglutinative forms. The research is grounded in the theoretical frameworks of Otto
Jespersen and V.V. Vinogradov, whose approaches to verbal categories provide a solid
foundation for this comparison. The thesis identifies both universal (shared) and
language-specific features of the verbal systems in English and Uzbek.
