How to say Hello in Uzbek, how to meet people in Uzbek, how to introduce yourself in Uzbek? Today we are going to read, listen, repeat and role-play dialogues when meeting people in a coffee shop in Uzbek. The lesson uses audio from Uzbek natives.
We are starting our conversational Uzbek lessons in English. The material which you will find here is the beginning of my textbook (or a teach-yourself one/ a tutorial) of Uzbek that I have already started writing.
I have studied a few Uzbek textbooks, most of which are correct in terms of grammar and vocabulary. Unfortunately, very few people can really learn Uzbek using them. What I propose below corrects, in my opinion, all the previous shortcomings. My textbook — at least, I think so — will really allow everyone to learn the Uzbek language.
This Uzbek language textbook is for adults and teenagers. For now, I plan to create its first part, after which you should reach a confident A1 level in Uzbek. And it won’t be difficult.
I understand that the task is, to put it mildly, ambitious. If someone is ready to offer their financial assistance, I will be glad (for example. subscription to the site and the site channel through Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/marinakozlova). Everything that I do so far is done only on my enthusiasm and solely at the expense of my personal funds.
You can criticize the materials I give you. Ask your questions and share your suggestions in the comments below.
