Level 5

-ga oid and -ga doir mean related to or concerning. They link a topic to a noun: tarixga oid kitoblar (books on history).

How It Works

The shape. Topic + -ga + oid or doir + the noun it describes:

  • tarixga oid kitoblar (books on history)
  • sportga doir yangiliklar (sports news)
  • ishga doir hujjatlar (work documents)

At the end of a sentence. The phrase can also be the predicate: Bu savol mavzuga oid emas (This question is not related to the topic).

Oid or haqida? Haqida (about) is the everyday word for talking or writing about something: Biz tarix haqida gaplashdik (We talked about history). Oid and doir mainly describe a noun and sound more formal: tarixga oid maʼlumotlar (information about history).

The same family. Oid and doir are postpositions that need -ga, like koʻra and muvofiq.

Common Mistakes

  • Using -dan instead of -ga.

    Kutubxonada tarixdan oid kitoblar koʻp.
    Kutubxonada tarixga oid kitoblar koʻp.

    Oid and doir always take -ga on the topic word.

  • Using oid after a verb of talking (meant: we talked about history).

    Biz tarixga oid gaplashdik.
    Biz tarix haqida gaplashdik.

    Oid describes a noun; it does not say what you talk about. After verbs like gaplashmoq, use haqida.
