The great and mighty Russian language — Великий и могучий русский язык

The Russian language is surprisingly rich and beautiful, it is the main forming core of Russian culture. Without a language, Russian culture cannot exist; therefore, every cultural person is obliged to protect his or her native language.

In the world, there are many languages, each of which is unique in its own way, unusual, interesting to learn. Every nation has its own original features, its own mentality, its own cultural experience — all this is reflected in the language, and it is with the help of the language that the people can preserve and multiply their national heritage.

Russian is the language of high culture; outstanding works of world literature, world theater and cinema have been created in Russian. Russian is the native language for such universally recognized geniuses as Leo Tolstoy, Fyodor Dostoevsky, Alexander Pushkin and for many other writers, poets, playwrights, critics, public and cultural figures. Modern Russian did not originate from scratch, it is the result of long-term transformations of East Slavic languages. Also, modern literary Russian language is a consequence of the interaction between different dialects, between the peculiarities of the language of different social groups and segments of the population. This interaction took place over several centuries and led to the formation of the modern living Russian language.

Language is a systemic part of the culture, with its help not only communication between people is carried out, each language imprints the peculiarities of the people’s mentality, but the native language is also the main factor in determining national identity. With the death of the language, culture also dies; therefore, anyone who belongs to Russian culture and considers himself a cultural person must take care of the language he speaks. The Russian language is now certainly not threatened with extinction, it is owned by several hundred million people. Russian is still a relatively young language that has yet to evolve and change in the future. The protection of the language is inextricably linked with its development, it is necessary not only to preserve the traditions and heritage of Russian culture but also to enrich the culture with new opportunities. The widest possibilities for a language are opened when a society develops its language and develops with it.

Russian is the language of international communication. For many centuries, it is the Russian language that has been the most important basis for mutual understanding between the peoples of multinational Russia and other nearby states. Perfect knowledge of the Russian language not only enriches a person spiritually but also makes him involved in the great wealth of Russian culture.
