Parts of speech or lexico-grammatic groups of words are primary 
grammatical categories.
As it is known the classification of parts of speech in compared 
languages can be identified according to the following features of lexemes: 

Lexical and grammatical meaning 

Generalization of morphologic forms for certain word groups 

According to the function of words in the sentences.
Every word of a certain part of speech has its own morphological 
forms, these forms contain morphological paradigm and can be connected 
with certain grammatical categories. For instance, in English the inflection –s

can represent acategory of thenumber and –ed of the verb can represent tense 
category and etc [Buranov, 1973, 101].
Secondary grammatical categories are units of grammatical meaning 
and grammatical forms.
Any grammatical category (the category of gender, category number, 
category of case, etc.) in each word has a specific content. For example, the 
category of gender, a noun category, in the words of the 
книга (book)
reveals 
that this noun is a feminine noun in Russian; category or type, for example, 
the verb 
рисовать (to draw)
has specific content - a verb imperfective. These 
meanings of wordsare called grammatical meanings. Therefore, every word 
can have a number of grammatical meanings, for example, in the Russian verb 
бежал
thefollowing grammatical meanings can be observed: past tense 
meaning, singular, the masculine category of gender, unfinished form. 
Grammatical meanings are expressed by a specific means of language. 
For example, the meaning of the 1st person singular of the Russian verb 
пишу
is expressed by the ending
-y,
and the general meaning of the instrumental case 
of the word 
лесом
is expressed by th ending 
-ом. 
These expressions of 
grammatical meanings with external language means called grammatical 
forms. Consequently, the form of the word is a variation of the same word, 
differentiated from each other with grammatical meanings. Beyond the 
grammatical form, there is no grammatical meaning. Grammatical meanings 
can be expressed not only by morphological changes of words but also by 
means of other words, with which it is associated in the sentence. For 
example, in the Russian sentences
Он купил пальто 
and 
Он был в пальто
the 
form of the word 
пальто (coat
)is the same, but in the first case it has the 
grammatical meaning of the accusative case, and in the second - the 
prepositional. These meanings are formed with different connections of the 
word with other words in the sentence. 
Moreover, according to the structure grammatical forms can be 
subdivided into synthetic form and analytical form. 
The main difference between synthetic form and analytical form is that 
synthetic forms can be formed with the help of affixal grammatic morphemes 
(like morphemes of aspect, tense, mood, voice, person, number and perfect 
categories) while analytic forms are formed with link verbs.
In the following examples of comparison of secondary grammatical 
categories, grammatical meaning and grammatical forms can be identified.
In English, Russian and Uzbek languages, plurality is the category of 
the noun, pronoun, and verb, which means a great number of something or 
someone. For example, 
these books are interesting – бу китоблар қизиқарли 
– этикнигиинтересны. 
All compared languages have some nouns, which are never used in 
aplural form such as 
love, friendship, hate – любовь, дружба – муҳаббат, 
дўстлик. 
The verbs of compared languages are able to indicate the plurality.

Nevertheless, in English and Russian indefinite pronouns 
some, any 
and their 
derivatives
don’t have plural forms. But in Uzbek they have.

In English, some borrowed words keep their original plural forms. But 
in Russian and Uzbek borrowed words follow the rules of making plurality.

Although, in English, there are nouns which form the plural by 
changing the root vowel. But in Russian and Uzbek there is no such a 
phenomenon. This feature can be considered as adistinctive feature of English 
plural form of the category of a plurality 
(man- men, woman – women, foot – 
feet, ox – oxen and etc.).
Moreover, in English and Russian,there are also some 
nouns, which have only the plural form (spectacles, trousers, scissors - очки, 
брюки, ножницы), and they are not characterized in Uzbek. Thus, they can 
be considered as similarity in English and Russian and as distinctive feature in 
comparison with Uzbek.
Therefore, typology of grammatical categories of the languages can 
serve in identifying language universals and at the same time to clarify their 
distinctive peculiarities. These phenomena can be helpful in thedeep 
understanding of any language and teach them as a foreign language as well 
as in translation processes too.
