partially. Grammatical-lexical fields unite vocabulary and grammar for 
the expression of this or that categorical notion. 
Authors distinguished fields of plurality, time, modality, 
comparison, animateness/inanimateness and so on.. 
This method is used for typological investigation of the system of 
one language. The above mentioned categories do not satisfy 
typologists. Thus, to compare the systems of different languages 
typological categories must be used. 
Typological categories are established by professor J. Buranov. 
They are connected with typological investigations and consist of the 
typological form and typological meaning. Typological meaning is 
modified as an abstract notion, which lies under the system of languages 
under comparison. Typological meaning is realized by typological 
form, which may be expressed by the connection of the affixal 
morphemes to the root morphemes or to the stem of the words , by 
sound interchange, by suppletive forms, by the change of the place of 
the stress in the word, by word order, by the combination of the 
auxiliary word with the notional one. On the lexical level they may be 
expressed by derivational suffixes and independent words. On the 
syntactic level they may be expressed by phrases and sentences. 
Typological categories are modified by the following criteria: 
interlanguage, interclass, interlevel. Typological categories are 
interlanguage because they are common to the system of comparing 
languages. For example, the category of number consists of the 
opposition of singularity and plurality. It is a universal and characterizes

almost all languages in general, and English, Russian, Uzbek in 
particular. So the category of number is an interlanguage category. 
The process of comparison is very complicated with different types 
of languages, where this or that language under comparison has its own 
specific peculiarities. That's why the ways of expression of typological 
categories may be different and in order to reveal them typologist deals 
with all levels while investigating languages, that is interlevelness of 
typological categories. For example, on the morphological level the 
category of number is expressed by suffix -
