Keywords: Onomastics, toponyms, microtoponym, macrotoponym, footsteps, agronym, necron, lexical basis, etymology, linguistic, morphemic. 1. INTRODUCTION. Toponyms are the study of such disciplines as linguistics, geography, history, geology. They reflect the history and destiny of the people and the country. The place names are one of the unique monuments of ancient peoples, nations and peoples. Because they represent a world of history and destiny. Just as onomastics is a separate branch of linguistics about famous horses, in toponymy, which is one of its branches, the etymological study of toponyms and their lexical bases is of great theoretical and practical importance in both synchronous and diachronic cases. Although the article focuses on the linguistic-etymological and morphemic study of toponyms of Bukhara district, it is general in its research on place names so far; both linguistic and geographical; historical and linguistic; as explanatory and etymological studies. 2. ANALYSIS. The study of the toponymy of a particular area begins with the collection of toponymic material in that area.

Attitudes toward the study of ethnonyms are based on their conclusions. Key words: adjective horse, ethnonym, ethnonymity, ethnotoponism, place name, onomastics, toponym, micro- macrotoponimia, simple toponym, complex toponym, topogenesis, word-buildings affixes. I.Introduction One of the most cherished values of any country is its name. Wherever they are, the people of the country proudly pronounce the name, write poems, sing songs and remember. For those who have met their compatriots in other countries, it is not their names that are important, but the fact that they are from Uzbekistan and Bukhara, which makes them dear friends. Therefore, when naming a street, neighborhood, village, or city where people live, they focus not only on performing their address function (i.e., distinguishing, and locating one geographical object from another) but also on becoming a symbol of the country and a spiritual value. In the sense of the names, they tried to reflect the most characteristic, distinctive features of the place and the people living there. II.Literature review The field of ethnonymy still has unresolved and controversial issues. One of these is the question of whether ethnonyms are nicknames or cognate nouns. Scientists have differing opinions on this. According to the well-known toponymist V.A.

    174 MIDDLE EUROPEAN SCIENTIFIC BULLETIN ISSN 2694-9970 Topic Groups of Microtoponyms of Jondor District Narzullayeva Manzura Shuhratovna Teacher of the Department of Primary Education Methods, Bukhara State University ABSTRACT Toponyms, the well-known names of places, date back to the distant past and reflect the social, cultural, spiritual, religious and philosophical views of our ancient ancestors, as well as their skill and ingenuity in naming places. In this sense, toponyms are the historical and linguistic richness of the Uzbek language, the great heritage of the people's spirituality. This article explains the semantic groups of place names in Jondor district of Bukhara region, and summarizes the etymological features of each place name. Key words: Onomastics, toponyms, etymology, physical-geographical, oikonyms, hydronyms, dromonyms, agroonyms, necronyms. I.Introduction Onomastics is the branch of linguistics that studies famous horses. This section covers various groups of famous horses. One of them is a toponym - place names. Toponyms, in turn, can represent many forms of place names. For example, streets, guzars, mahallas, auls, villages, cities, and so on. In toponyms, village names are distinguished as a specific group. In this information, we analyze the names of villages found in the territory of Jondor district. II.Literature review Onomastics is one of the fastest growing branches of Uzbek linguistics since the 1960s. So far, a number of serious studies have been carried out on the study of Uzbek anthroponymy and toponymy, especially in the field of toponymy. Their authors are the leading Uzbek nominees H. Hasanov, T. Nafasov, Z. Dosimov, S. Karayev. Thanks to the efforts of these scientists and a number of nomenclature, the toponyms of Khorezm, Kashkadarya, Surkhandarya and Samarkand regions were collected and analyzed in depth.
