Adjectival morphology

Adjectives in Kyrgyz language do not change with cases, possessions and with plural (-лар) suffix. It has 4 levels : 1. Normal 2. Comparative 3. Superlative 4. Weakening

Normal Level

Ех:
1.кооз; Бишкекте кооз уйлор көп курулду.
2.саздуу,кара,көк,аккан Кара шибер, көк майсан, саздуу болот аккан суу.
3.жакшы; Энеси уулуна жакшы тарбия берген экен.

Comparative

Built by adding -ыраак (-/(I)rAAK/) suffix

Examples :

  • кызыл+ыраак redder
  • таттуу+раак sweeter
  • жакшы+раак better
  • кең+ирээк wider
  • сары+раак yellower
  • тоголок+ураак rounder
  • соо+роок more sober
  • өзгөчө+рөөк more special

#Ablative case is used for "than", e.g.:

  • мен+ден чоң+ураак bigger than me

Superlative

  1. Built by using following adverbs: эң,өтө,аябай,чымкый
    • эң жакшы "the best"
    • эң катуу "the hardest"
    • эң сары "the yellowest"
    this is often with possessive morphology after the adjective or the NP it's part of, corresponding roughly to definiteness (specifying what the known domain is) —JNW
      • бу+лар+дын эң чоң+у аныкы the biggest of these is his
      • бул алма+лар+дын эң сары+сы this is the yellowest of the apples
      • бул эң сары алма(+сы) this is the yellowest apple
  1. These aren't superlative, but similar
    • абдан кооз "really beautiful"
    • өтө сулуу "very handsome"
    • аябай ысык "extremely hot"
    • чылк семиз "very fat"
    • чымкый кызыл "very red"
    Typically in Apertium we categorise the "very, really, extremely" part as a separate POS preadv, which aids disambiguation -- e.g. a preadv is an adverb which cannot modify a verb on its own. -- Some can be both of course, but often leading to a different translation (e.g. (en) really<preadv> = (es) muy, (en) really<adv> = (es) verdaderamente) —FMT
  2. "extremetive" (?) adjectives
  3. Built by reduplication: the reduplicant is composed of all material through the first syllable nucleus of an adjective and ends with +/п/, prepended in front of the base
    • кара --> кап+кара as black as can be
    • сары --> сап+сары as yellow as can be
    • тоголок --> топ+тоголок as round as can be
    • ачуу --> ап+ачуу as spicy as can be
    • кызыл --> кып+кызыл as red as can be

"Weakening"

Weakens the meaning of adjectives built by adding -ыш,-гыл,-ылжым,-илжын,-ылтыр,-гыч,-гылт,-гылтым,-ыңкы

These are almost entirely non-productive and can probably be ignored for morphological analysis —JNW
suffixes Example Gloss
-ыш ак -- агыш,көк -- көгүш little bit white,little bit blue
-гыл кир -- киргил little bit dirty
-ылжым,-илжын көк -- көгүлжүм,кара -- каралжым little bit blue, little bit black
-ылтыр көк -- көгүлтүр blueish
-гыч сары -- саргыч yellowish
-гылт сары -- саргылт,кызыл -- кызгылт yellowish, reddish
-гылтым кызыл -- кызгылтым reddish
-ыңкы азган -- азыңкы --

Derivation

Aside from the derivation under #"Weakening", there is semi-productive derivation of adjectives from other parts of speech. This section will include some of them. Most of this morphology can probably be safely ignored as long as there's a certain amount of forms in the lexicon

-/LUU/

This makes adjectives out of nouns; I don't think it's universally productive, but it's quite ubiquitous

  • бакыт "happiness", бактылуу "happy"
  • белги "sign, symbol", белгилүү "famous, well-known"
  • кыймыл "motion", кыймылдуу "moving"
  • күмөн "doubt", күмөдүү "questionable"
  • ийгилик "success", ийгиликтүү "successful"

-/ʧIl/

-/sAK/

-/KI/

This seems to be used productively with time words and locations to make attributive adjectives

  • бүгүн "today", бүгүнкү "today's"
  • былтыр "last year", былтыркы "last year's"
  • түн "night", түнкү "nighttime (adj.)"
  • үст+ү "top+<px3>", үстүнкү "upper"
  • аст+ы "bottom+<px3>", астынкы "lower"
  • сырт "outside", сырткы "outer"

-/(ʧI+)lIK/

Derives [usually abstract] nouns from nouns.

Numerals (Сан атооч)

Numerals in it's own state do not change with cases and with plural (-лар) suffix.
Built by following suffixes:

suffixes Example Gloss
-ынчы (-нчы) бир+инчи, жети+нчи,үч+үнчү first, seventh, third (ordinals)
-оо,-өө бир+өө,алт+оо,беш+өө one,six,five of them (supporting)
-ча отуз+ча,кырк+ча,жүз+чө approximateley thirty,forty,hundred (approximate)

-лар ? эки+лер,уч+төр, он+дор ???

Verb Morphology
