Celebrating Uzbek Language Day

A country’s native language is a significant symbol of its nation. A person thinks in the language they speak and uses that knowledge to grow his or her homeland. Alisher Navoi wrote “those who do not respect the language do not pay attention to the people.” It is estimated that there are about 7,000 languages and dialects in the world today and the Uzbek language is among the 178 languages that has official status. This year marks the 33rd anniversary of the Uzbek language’s status as the state language. This may seem like a short period in history but we are proud of the fact that over the years the importance of our language has grown. 

One of the many projects to celebrate Uzbek Language Day was a special demo lesson on this theme for Year 8 students, organised by Mrs Aziza Imamhodjaeva. The presentation provided interesting information about the Uzbek language. The students participated eagerly and also learned various poems about Uzbek language and its values. We wish to inculcate in our students the richness of the Uzbek language so as to use it effectively in everyday life.
