Comparative language typology is part of the general typology
of linguistics. She studies systems of two or more languages,
certain categories of languages in a deductive way (from external
to internal). Comparative linguistic typology, as the concept itself
shows, is a linguistic subject of typology based on the method of
comparison. Comparative typology can equally consider only
dominant or common features, as well as only distinctive
features that occur in languages of the same structural type
(synthetic, analytical, agglutinative, etc.) or in languages of
different structural types (synthetic and analytical, agglutinative
and incorporated, etc.).
The classification of the main essential features of languages,
and their most important characteristics and patterns, are the
subject of comparative linguistic typology. The task of
comparative linguistic typology is to create general typological
rules and concepts by comparing linguistic phenomena of
different languages.

Сравнительный анализ языковой типологии и ее задачи

Ключевые слова:

языки,
определенные категории,
метод сравнения,
общие черты.
Сравнительная языковая типология является частью
общей типологии лингвистики. Она занимается изучением
систем двух и более языков, определенных категорий

(от

внутреннему). Сравнительная языковая типология, как
показывает
само
понятие,
представляет
собой
лингвистический предмет типологии, основанный на
методе сравнения. Сравнительная типология может в
равной степени рассматривать только доминирующие или
общие черты, а также только отличительные черты,
которые встречаются в языках одного и того же
структурного
типа
(синтетический,
аналитический,
агглютинативный и т.д.) Или в языках разных структурных
типов (синтетический и аналитический, агглютинативный
и инкорпоративный и т.д.).
Классификация основных существенных признаков
языков, и их наиболее важные характеристики и
закономерности, являются предметом сравнительной
языковой типологии. Задача сравнительной языковой
типологии состоит в том, чтобы создать общие
типологические правила и концепции путем сравнения
лингвистических явлений различных языков.
Introduction: Comparative typology is one of the branches of General linguistics,
which studies the systems of languages comparatively, also finds common laws of
languages and establishes differences and similarities between them. Moreover, due to
David Crystal’s book “Dictionary of Linguistics and Phonetics”, comparative typology is
explained in this way: “It is a branch of linguistics, which studies the structural similarities
between languages, regardless of their history, as part of an attempt to establish
satisfactory classification or typology of languages. Typological comparison is thus
distinguished from the historical comparison of languages and its groupings may not
coincide with those set up by the historical method”. [David Crystal
. P. 78, 2008, USA].
Comparative typology, as the concept itself reveals, represents a typology-based
linguistic subject based on the comparison method. Like typology proper comparative
typology conjointly aims at establishing the foremost general structural styles of languages

on their dominant or common phonetically, morphologically, lexical and syntactic options
solely, that are found in languages of the identical structural kind (synthetic, analytical,
agglutinative and etc.).
Main part:
Comparative typology of English and Uzbek languages
The word typology consists of two Greek morphemes: a) typos means type and b)
logos means science or word. Typology is a branch of science which is typical to all sciences
without any exception. In this respect their typological method is not limited to the sphere
of one science. It has a universal rise. So, typology may be divided into:
1. Non-linguistic and
2. Linguistic typology
Non-linguistic typology is the subject matter of the sciences except linguistics.
Linguistic typology is a new branch of general linguistics which studies the systems
of languages comparatively, also finds common laws of languages and establishes
differences and similarities between them.
Typological classification of languages.
In linguistics we may come across many terms as to the terminological nature of
linguistic typology.
They are:
1. Comparative methods, 2. Comparative
–
historical method, 3. Comparative (or
contrastive) linguistics, 4. Comparative typology, 5. Comparative grammar, 6. Connotation
grammar, 7. Descriptive

comparative linguistics and the terms used in Russian and Uzbek
are not exact either.
Comparative typology is a branch of general linguistic typology. It deals with a
comparison of languages.
Comparative typology compares the systems of two or more concrete languages and
creates common typological laws. The comparison of the system of two languages are
compared first of all.
E.g. The category of mood in English is considered to be a small system. Having
completed the comparison of languages investigators take the third language to compare
and so on. Comparative typology is sometimes characterized by some scholars as
characterology which deals with the comparison of the systems only.
COMPARATIVE Typology includes:
a) Characterology studies characteristic properties of comparing languages, it is
considered to be both theoretical and practical subject.
b) Universal Grammar deals with comparison of language systems. It compares not
only grammatical units but also morphologic units too.
I. The Tasks of Typology
1) to classify existing languages of the world;
2) to establish linguistic universals, i.e. linguistic phenomena existing in all
languages of the world;
3) to establish dominants, i.e. linguistic phenomena which exist in most of languages
of the world;
4) to set up frequent units
–
which exist in some languages of the world;
Classification of the main essential features of languages, the most important
characteristics and regularities are the subject of comparative typology.

The final aims of comparative typology are:
–
To identify and classify accordingly the main isomorphic and allomorphic features
characteristic of languages under investigation;
–
To draw from these common or divergent features respectively the isomorphic
regularities and the allomorphic singularities in the languages contrasted;
–
To establish on the basis of the obtained isomorphic features the typical language
structures and the types of languages;
–
To perform on the basis of the obtained practical data a truly scientific
classification of the existing languages of the world;
–
To establish on this basis the universal features/phenomena, which pertain to
each single language of the world.
Conclusion: According to the prominent Uzbek linguist Jamoliddin Bura
nov’s
concept “Comparative Typology is a part of General Typology.
It deals with studying
systems of two and more languages, certain categories of languages in a deductive way
(from external to internal).
The task of Comparative Typology is to create General typological rules and
conceptions by comparing linguistic phenomena of various languages.
Another important aim is to establish general structural types of languages. The
main task is to perform a scientific classification of existing languages of the world.
