Annotation:
In this article, I will discuss the number of people who speak Russian in the
world and the potential for teaching Russian in schools. I have given examples of the
widespread promotion of Russian as a subject in kindergartens, schools, colleges and even
higher education institutions.
Keywords:
The role of the Russian language in foreign countries, human dignity in Russian
cultures, the formation of the Russian language in children's speech, the Russian language in
Uzbek schools, the culture of the Russian people, a unique worldview, national culture in
Russian.
Russian is the national language of the Russian people, a form of Russian national
culture. The Russian language is one of the most developed languages in the world. It
has a rich vocabulary and terminology in all fields of science and technology, expressiveness,
brevity and clarity of grammatical means, and the ability to reflect the diversity of things in
the world. In June 2005, the Federal Law “On the State Language of the Russian Federation”
was adopted. Currently, the Russian language is in fourth place in the world in terms of
distribution. The first place is taken by English, which is used by about 500 million people as
a native or second language. In second place is Chinese, and in third place is Spanish, which
are widely used languages in the world. Every person has probably thought about their native
language or other languages at least once in their life. The works of Russian poets are taught
in Uzbek schools as textbooks. Have you ever wondered whether Uzbek-language textbooks
and the works of Uzbek writers are also taught in Russian schools?
Old Russian was spoken by the East Slavic tribes that founded the Old Russian nation
in the 9th century as part of the Kievan state. This language had great similarities with the
languages of other Slavic peoples. However, it was already distinguished by some phonetic
and lexical features. All Slavic languages (Polish, Czech, Slovak, Serbo-Croatian, Slovene,
Macedonian, Bulgarian, Ukrainian, Belarusian, Russian) originated from a common root - a
single Proto-Slavic language, which probably existed until the 10th-11th centuries. In the
14th-15th centuries, as a result of the disintegration of the Kievan state on the basis of the
single language of the Old Russian nation, three independent languages
\u200b\u200bemerged: Russian, Ukrainian and Belarusian, which, with the formation of
nations, became national languages. The formation and development of the tradition of book
writing in Russia, the main stages of the history of the Russian language, the first Cyrillic

texts appeared among the Eastern Slavs in the 10th century. In 988, book writing in Russian
began. The chronicle tells about many scribes who worked during the reign of Yaroslav the
Wise. Often liturgical books are relevant. The original copies of East Slavic manuscripts were
mainly South Slavic manuscripts of the works of Cyril and Methodius, students of the
creators of the Slavic script. In the process of correspondence, the original language was
adapted to the East Slavic language.
In addition, in our time there is no single periodization of the history of the Russian
literary language, accepted by all linguists, but all researchers in the construction of
periodization take into account the sociohistorical and cultural-social conditions of the
development of the language. The periodization of the history of the Russian literary
language is based on the observations of L.P. Yakubinsky, V.V. Vinogradov, G.O. Vinokura,
B.A. Larina, D.I. Gorshkova, Yu.S. Sorokin and other linguists, taking into account the
norms of the Russian literary language, its relationship with the ancient literary and linguistic
tradition, with the general literary language and dialects, the social functions and areas of
application of the Russian literary language.
Russian is not only the state language of the Russian Federation. It is one of the world
languages, that is, languages that serve as a means of international communication
between peoples of different countries. Of the more than two and a half thousand languages
known in the world, international communication is provided by the most developed
group of world languages, which is called the world language club. The elevation of a
language to the role of a world language is determined by the universal significance of the
culture created in this language. The status of a language as a world language is legally
determined by its recognition as an official or working language of international
organizations or conferences (UN, UNESCO and other organizations). Thus, along with
Russian, English, Arabic, Spanish, Chinese and French.
It is recognized as one of the six official languages of the UN. Language is
understood as a social phenomenon that has existed in all periods of human society. The main
purpose of language is to serve as a means of communication, communication. Language is
inextricably linked with thinking, human consciousness, serves as a means of forming and
expressing our thoughts and feelings. There are more than 2,000 languages on our planet.
Among them, Russian is one of the most widespread. Despite the fact that languages
are different from each other, each of them has a "kinship" with other languages.
Russian, along with Ukrainian and Belarusian, belongs to the East Slavic family. Russian
exists and is still developing due to the fact that it simultaneously performs all the universal
functions inherent in any language.
With the help of language, people communicate, convey to each other thoughts,
feelings, knowledge about the world around us. Any word in our language is not just a set of
sounds; it has its own meaning and content. And we think with the same meanings. Therefore,
language is closely related to thinking. In a developing country, the Russian language is not
only a language, but also performs three more functions. First of all, Russian is the national
language of the Russian people. It has created wonderful monuments of art and literature, it is
the language of science and culture. The structure of words, their meanings and
interrelationships convey knowledge about the world and people to others.
Secondly, Russian is the state language of the Russian Federation. During the existence
of the USSR, there was no such language in Russian. Now it is a language that serves the
needs of people not only at work but also at home, the official language of the state, science,

production and, of course, culture. Thirdly, Russian is one of the international languages. It is
one of the world languages, declared official and working languages by the UN in
international relations.
Without language, the life of man, people, society is impossible, the development of
science and technology, art. The meaning of language (speech, word) is emphasized by many
Russian proverbs. Since the middle of the 20th century, Russian has become a recognized
world language. In addition to Russian, any document at the UN is distributed in six
languages: English, French, Spanish, Chinese and Arabic. Today, about 300 million people
speak Russian. The richness of the Russian language and the literature created in it arouse
interest in this language all over the world. It is studied not only by students, schoolchildren,
but also by adults. In order to teach Russian outside our country, the International
Association of Teachers of the Russian Language and Literature was founded in Paris in
1967. The Association publishes methodological literature for foreign teachers of the Russian
language and literature, for international Russian language Olympiads among schoolchildren
from different countries.
In the 16th and 17th centuries, Europeans learned words such as kremlin, caftan,
kopeck, pistachio, and kvass. The famous Greek philosopher's fable, which became a slave to
him, goes like this: "One day, Xanthus ordered Aesop to prepare a dish from the worst thing
in the world. The next day, Xanthus ordered a dish from the best thing. Aesop again prepared
a dish from the tongue. Xanthus asked why he ordered a dish from the tongue twice. Aesop
replied, "The tongue is the one that can say the worst and the best words in the world." From
this, we can see that it is not only necessary to learn different foreign languages well, but
also to know how to speak politely and politely, no matter what language you speak.
