Usbekisch-Deutsches Verbwörterbuch
In the present work, the underlying questions were more or less addressed and answered. Some solutions to the specific questions, although they contradict the theory, can be considered valid from an empirical point of view. In particular, in the case of a valence dictionary, it could be considered a textbook, which consequently prevents quick access. In the previous chapters, some questions relating to the concept of "valence" and the underlying viewpoints were discussed and summarized. However, there are further questions that require explanation. The treatment of selection questions regarding the lemmas was discussed in the chapter "Macrostructure of a monolingual dictionary". The selection of lemma types represents a significant problem for all dictionary authors. The "Uzbek-German Verb Dictionary" also addresses this topic. However, for the present case, in which the source language is Uzbek, Uzbek lexicographical studies on lemma selection have shown themselves to be very selective. There are still problematic points related to the types of verbs, such as: reflexive verbs, passive verbs and reciprocal verbs in Uzbek. These verbs are even listed as lemmas in some monolingual dictionaries, with only references such as "derived passive form" or "derived reflexive form". However, these verbs do not pose any great difficulties for Uzbeks, as they can understand them without any major problems. However, this type of explanation requires a special approach when it comes to selecting lemmas for a bilingual dictionary based on Uzbek. There is a need for further research in this field, especially with regard to scientific explanations and work on the Uzbek-German language pair. Although these studies have not yet been explicitly reported, it seems feasible and theoretically provable from the lexicographical studies covered in this work. In summary, it can be said that the questions posed, although not yet fully resolved, can be dealt with theoretically and resolved at the individual level. Such questions also arise when analyzing the sentence structures of Uzbek verbs in the dictionary. In the previously discussed chapters on the topic of valence, sentence structures of German verbs were discussed. The construction of sentence structures and the valence of verbs represent a new aspect for the Uzbek language. When implementing sentence structures for Uzbek verbs in the verb dictionary, serious questions have become evident that seem surprising even to native speakers. One example is the entry "etw.", which plays an active role in illustrating the sentence structures. When reproducing the entry as the equivalent "narsa" in the Uzbek language, inconsistencies in content arise in some contexts. In all monolingual Uzbek dictionaries, this word is cited as a reference to all meanings such as "any material being", "object", "life, all objects, things and products that are necessary for survival" or "in general, any event (conversation, word, game, laughter, action, incident, event and the like)". It can be stated that the use of the term "narsa'" in the context of the sentence structure is not to be considered unusual. This indicates the need for further research. In conclusion, it can be said that the present scientific work provides explicit answers with regard to the "Uzbek-German Dictionary". Nevertheless, further questions have arisen in the course of the study, the exploration of which is the subject of further research. In conclusion, I hope that the present work makes a significant contribution to lexicographic research in the context of the Uzbek-German verb dictionary.
