har
Every
Har means every or each. It goes before a singular noun: har kuni (every day), har bir talaba (each student).
How It Works
Har means every or each. Like English every, it is followed by a singular noun, never a plural: har talaba (every student), not har talabalar.
Har bir. Adding bir (one) stresses each individual: Har bir talabaning kitobi bor (Every single student has a book).
Time words. Kun (day) and yil (year) usually take -i after har: har kuni (every day), har yili (every year). Other time words are often used as they are: har hafta (every week), har oy (every month).
Useful words built with har:
- har doim: always
- har kim: everyone, each person
- har narsa: everything
- har yerda: everywhere
- har xil: all kinds of, various. Here xil (kind) is what har counts, so the noun after it can be plural: har xil mevalar (all kinds of fruit).
Writing. Har is always written as a separate word: har kuni, har kim.
Every vs all. Har looks at the members one by one. To talk about the whole group, use hamma or barcha with a plural: hamma talabalar (all the students).

Common Mistakes
Putting a plural noun after har.
Har talabalar keldi.Har bir talaba keldi.Har needs a singular noun. For the whole group, say Hamma talabalar keldi.
Making the time word plural.
Har kunlar ishlayman.Har kuni ishlayman.Har kuni is the fixed way to say every day. The noun stays singular and takes -i.
Joining har to the next word.
Harkuni ishga boraman.Har kuni ishga boraman.The spelling rules write har as a separate word: har kuni, har kim.
