"Day of the Languages of the Peoples of Kazakhstan"

On September 5, 2023 in Room 3-9, the senior teacher of the Department of Russian Philology and World Literature held   a curatorial hour with the 3rd-year students majoring in “6B01703 Russian language and Literature", dedicated to the week of languages, within the framework of SDG 4 "Quality Education".

The event was aimed at teaching about the holiday: “The Day of the Languages of the peoples of Kazakhsta”, different nationalities living in peace and harmony in Kazakhstan and kindling   an interest in the culture and traditions of these nations and developing a tolerant attitude towards each other, regardless of nationality.

Task: We were all born in this one beautiful country, and we speak different languages. And all because Kazakhstan is a multinational state. At the end of September, our state celebrates the holiday "Day of the Languages of the Peoples of Kazakhstan" The Day of the Languages of the Peoples of Kazakhstan was declared by the Decree of the President of the Republic of Kazakhstan dated January 20, 1998 and became a common holiday for all Kazakhstanis. Representatives of more than 85 nations and nationalities live here. Each language has its own history, its own destiny connected with the destinies of other languages. Through language, people find each other and learn to understand the spiritual culture, customs and rituals of the people. This holiday is celebrated on September 22.

The Day of Languages is a sign of friendship, kinship and unity of all citizens of the country. Kazakhstan unites many nations and our president states "It is necessary that there be one language of the peoples of different countries, and this is undoubtedly the language of Friendship!" In our country, the Kazakh language is the state language, all people who live in Kazakhstan should know and understand Kazakh speech.

"Special importance in the language policy of Kazakhstan is attached to the Russian language, which is one of the world languages and is widely used in the modern world. The third element is English, which occupies a dominant position in the modern world. The English language opens a window to the world for Kazakhstanis, a window to globalization.Kazakhstan is becoming more and more involved in international processes and contacts. Today, no one in society needs to be convinced that knowledge of the English language is the most important resource for a person's professional growth."
