INTRODUCTION In a conversation with schoolchildren, the President noted the importance of acquiring knowledge.“You are on the right path. Never stop learning, exploring. Time flies by, so you need to study today to find a worthy place in life tomorrow, to become modern professionals. I believe that you will grow up as a completely new generation that will fulfill the dreams of your parents and your country. After all, you will have knowledge. And knowledge, as I have said many times, does not burn in fire and does not sink in water. Our only true path is the path to knowledge”, Shavkat Mirziyoyev said[1;1].
Language is a social phenomenon and every language has its own grammar. For many centuries such famous scholars as B. Illyish, M. Y. Blokh, O. Jesperson and many others had investigated the problem of parts of speech, that causes great controversies both in general linguistic theory and in the analysis of separate languages. And the main question that had interested them was noun as a part of speech. Nouns are the most numerous class of words (42% of all words). Professor A.S. Ahmanova in her dictionary of linguistic terms gives the following definition of the noun or the substance is the part of speech characterized by the categorical meaning of thingness, by the lexico-grammatical category of gender, by the grammatical categories of number and case, by the syntactical functions of subject, object and predicate and by the developed of word formation models. The noun is a word expressing substance in the widest sense of the word. In the concept of substance we include not only names of living beings (e.g. boy, girl, bird) and lifeless things (e.g. table, chair, book), but also names of abstract notions, i.e. qualities, slates, actions (kindness, strength, sleep, fear, conversation, fight), abstracted from their bearers. In speech these types of nouns are treated in different ways, so one, who does not know ways of treatment, can make mistakes in his speech. No speaking is possible without the knowledge of using nouns and so, we have chosen the theme “The stylistic power of the Noun”.
The aim: To describe grammatical categories that noun possesses.
To reach this aim we have set forward the following objectives:
- to describe main features of nouns;
- to analyze the grammatical categories of nouns.
- to compare the grammatical categories of English nouns with Russian
