Сравнительный анализ китайских предлогов "Zài(在), Cónɡ(从)" и соответствующих узбекских аффиксов/вспомогательных

3. Conclusion

Based on the above contrastive analysis, the following transfer predictions of Chinese prepositions "Zai" and "Cong" are proposed for Uzbek native speakers.

Generally speaking, the Chinese prepositions "Zai" and "Cong" have corresponding affixe/auxiliariy usages in Uzbek, but the word order of affixes or auxiliaries in Uzbek language is different from that in Chinese prepositions.Therefore, for beginners, there will be some negative transfer during they acquire Chinese preposition "Zai" and "cong". The details are as follows:

Affected by Uzbek affixes order, learners may place Chinese prepositions after body parts, which may cause word order errors. E.g: the preposition "Zai/Cong" is generally expressed as "Zai/Cong + time / location noun", the affix corresponding to the preposition "Zai/Cong" in Uzbek is "-da/-dan", and its usage is generally expressed as "time/ location noun + -da/-dan".E.g:"Wǒ zài běijīnɡ xuéxí hànyǔ(Men pekinda xitoy tilini o’rganyapman)",the learner may produce errors"*Wǒ běijīnɡ zài xuéxí hànyǔ".

Uzbek is a cohesive language, with abundant auxiliary words and affixes. Affected by the habits of mother tongue, learners may like to add a preposition in front of words related to meanings such as time, space and objects, resulting in negative mother tongue transfer.E.g:"Tǎshén’ɡān hěn piàoliɑnɡ(Toshkentda juda chiroyli)",learners may produce errors"*Zài tǎshén’ɡān hěn piàoliɑnɡ".

Some prepositions in Chinese have no corresponding translation in Uzbek, and these prepositions are easy to produce errors. E.g: the fixed format "Zài…kànlái" (in one’s opinion), there is no corresponding translation in Uzbek, but only through right translation,while after the translation, the affix "-da" is lost. Therefore, learners are prone to negative transfer of target language knowledge due to they do not master this usage.
