Introduction. Words are categorized based on their parts of speech. In the French language, there are eight primary parts of speech. They are: 1. Nouns (noms): Words that name people, places, things, or ideas. Example: chien (dog), France (France), liberté (freedom); 2. Adjectives (adjectifs): Words that describe nouns or pronouns. Example: grand (tall), bleu (blue), heureux (happy); 3. Verbs (verbes): Words that express an action or a state of being. Example: manger (to eat), être (to be), courir (to run); 4. Adverbs (adverbes): Words that modify verbs, adjectives, or other adverbs, often indicating time, manner, place, or degree. Example: rapidement (quickly), ici (here), très (very); 5. Pronouns (pronoms): Words that stand in for nouns or a noun phrase. Example: il (he), celui (that one), nous (we); 6. Articles (articles): An article is a word that modifies a noun in a particular way, by stating whether the noun is specific, unspecific, or partial. Example: un, une (a/an) des (some), le, la, les (the), du, de la, de l’ (some) ; 73 ACADEMIC RESEARCH IN MODERN SCIENCE International scientific-online conference 7.

This article will explore the characteristics of word groups in the French language. NOUNS. A word group that denotes the names of animate and inanimate objects, actions, qualities, abstract concepts is called a noun. As is known, the concept of gender does not exist in the Uzbek language. In Russian, there are three genders – masculine, feminine and middle gender. In French, nouns are divided into two: le masculin and le féminin. In dictionaries, they are abbreviated as m and f. It should be remembered that the gender of a noun in Russian does not always coincide with the gender of a noun in French. The gender of nouns in animate objects is expressed in the following ways: 1. By changing the noun suffix; 2. By adding special suffixes; 3. By changing the determiner; 4. By leaving special words. VERBS. As in many languages, verbs in French have different forms for the different functions they perform in sentences. It is traditional to present verb forms in paradigms. Simple forms are made up of stems to which endings are attached. Compound forms are made up of forms of the auxiliary verbs avoir and être plus a past participle. Double compound forms are made up of forms of the compound auxiliary verbs avoir eu or avoir été plus a past participle. ADJECTIVES. Adjectives (les adjectifs) describe the qualities and characteristics of a noun, they describe how someone or something is. They always accompany the noun they describe, and the endings of an adjective always agree with the noun in terms of gender (masculine or feminine) and number (singular or plural). There are four types of adjectives: 1. Descriptive adjectives (adjectifs déscriptifs). they tell what kind of person or thing the noun is: une grande maison des hommes intelligents. 2. Possessive adjectives (adjectifs possessifs). they tell whose noun it is: Mes parents ton livre. 3. Interrogative adjectives (adjectifs interrogatifs). they ask which noun it is: Quel livre as-tu perdu? Quelles chaussures veux-tu acheter? 74 ACADEMIC RESEARCH IN MODERN SCIENCE International scientific-online conference 4. Demonstrative adjectives (adjectifs démonstratifs) They point out things (“this”/ “that” / “these”/ “those”): Cette classe est intéressante. Je n’aime pas ces fraises. ADVERBS. Adverbs usually indicate quantity, time, place, intensity, and/or manner (“how”). Adverbs are invariable. They modify: 1. Verbs. Adverbs which modify verbs are placed directly after the verb: Il chante mal. Mes cousins vont arriver bientôt. 2. Adjectives. Adverbs which modify adjectives are placed directly before the adjective. They usually indicate intensity: Robert est complètement stupide. Le chien est très grand. 3. Other adverbs. Adverbs which modify other adv
