yaxshi-roq
, 
qulay-roq
; 
wide-r, strong-er
. In the English 
language as it is in Russian, adjectives , which possess two or more 

---

77 
syllables form their comparative degree analytically by the words 
mor
e 
or
 less
, for example: 
more
beautiful
, 
less beautiful. 
Examples show 
that in this combination words 
more
and 
less
have come out of 
many
and 
little
; in combination with the adjectives for the formation of the 
comparative degree their sound structure has changed and at some 
extent they have lost their lexical meaning ; it gives us the right to 
consider the words 
more
or 
less
to be analytical forms expressing 
comparative degree in combination with the adjectives consisting of 
two or more syllables. In this case the English language corresponds to 
the Russian one. 
The superlative degree is expressed analytically in the Russian, 
English and Uzbek languages by the combination of the words 
самый, 
the most, eng
with the adjectives: самый большой, the most 
handsome, eng baland. 
Besides this, the superlative degree is also expressed on the 
morphological level of the Russian and English languages synthetically 
by adding the morphemes 
айш
, -
ейш
in Russian: мелкий-
мельчайший, новый- новейший, by the morpheme 
-est
in English: the 
smallest, the strongest. The Uzbek language doesn't possess this 
characteristic feature. The superlative degree in the Uzbek language is 
expressed only analytically by the combination of the word 
eng
with 
the adjective: eng baland, eng aqlli, eng katta. 
Analyses of the factual material shows that there is a great 
difference in the synthetic way of adding affixal morphemes to the 
stems of the English , Russian and Uzbek languages. In Russian affixal 
morphemes change root morphemes, that is a synthetical-inflected way 
of adding affixal morphemes to the root morphemes. In the English and 
Uzbek languages in most cases the affixal morpheme doesn't change the 
appearance of the root , that is the synthetical-agglutinative way of 
adding morphemes.
