Abstract

Studies of Kazakh language problems in Kazakhstan. This is an actual problem nowadays in Kazakhstan but however, there are no so much enough articles which indicate my issue. This paper investigates the problem of ignorance and problems in studying Kazakh language among all citizens of Kazakhstan republic. To deal with this task, the survey of 13 questions containing questions about Kazakh language problem awareness, details of lifestyle and reasons of Kazakh language ignorance. The findings of the paper show that approximately 67.3% citizens (most young people) didn’t pay so much attention for studying Kazakh Language in school, more than 79% of respondents thinking that Kazakh Language problem is exists, but most of these respondents didn’t know how to solve this problem, moreover about 88% are recognizing that Kazakh language is on the verge of extinction. This confirms that the problem of Kazakh Language ignorance is very serious, and need to be solved as soon as possible before this situation became irreversible. Though, the analyses of this paper contain small amount of respondents, who believes that this issue is temporary and after some period of time the situation will be stable.

INTRODUCTION

By choosing the topic for this research I’ve chosen the Kazakh Language problem. What I mean by writing the statement «Kazakh Language Problem?» By writing such statement I mean that Kazakh language ignorance reached such index that Kazakhstani people and State government should make urgent measures to solve this problem, because if this problem process will be launched, stop and solve this problem will be extremely hard. My research paper will investigate the academic article which I have read and I will provide results of survey that I did among the 48 persons that differs each other by age, social class, interests and ideas. So I will provide what the reasons of this language problem existing nowadays in Kazakhstan, and what other problems may be created by this language problem. I will briefly underline 5 main reasons why Kazakh language problem is becoming dangerous. First reason is – lack of practice and unsuitable environment for learning. Second reason is – established stereotypes of Kazakhstani citizens, this reason will be difficult to change, I’ would rather say: if Kazakhstani citizens will break this stereotype it will be much easier to solve this language problem. In my survey I’ve asked a lot of people, in order to check do these stereotypes really exist. I’ve also asked a lot of question about personal attitude of each respondent to Kazakh Language; I guess that results of this survey will be useful and interesting. Third reason – is improper motivation of state government. I want to say that I will not criticize our national government; I just want to write that this support is not enough in order to solve this issue, in my body section I’ll provide more information about this reason. The fourth reason Kazakh language – lack of the Kazakh language prestige. And last, fifth reason, I suppose one of the main reasons as well it is outdated methods of Kazakh language teaching. I underlined 5 main reasons why Kazakh language problem is existing in Kazakhstan, I want to notice one interesting fact: there is no such kind of problems when citizens of the state does not using their own native language, so Kazakhstan has this linguistic language problem, that maybe will be solved in near future.
