On October 23, in the museum of the Library of Elbassy for students of the metropolitan school-lyceum №48 a lesson "Words of edification and their significance in the formation of personality" was held.
Kazakhs since ancient times appreciated the power of the mot juste. The precepts of our ancestors have come down to us in the form of wise sayings, words of edification, proverbs, etc.
The Kazakh language is incredibly rich in winged expression, aphorisms, sayings. Many of them have come to us from the depths of centuries. Each aphorism, wisdom has its own history. The event participants studied the rich, original art of accurate and wise words, getting acquainted with the works of great thinkers, philosophers, writers and poets, public and state figures of the Kazakh people.
Special attention was paid to the role of the First President of the Republic of Kazakhstan - Elbassy N. Nazarbayev in the development of the Kazakh language and culture in the years of independence. As Elbassy said: "Taking care of the revival of the national identity of Kazakhs is my presidential and filial duty."
The lecturer also gave examples of N. Nazarbayev's statements, which have become winged today: "The wisdom of the past is the priceless wealth of the present", "Those who do not respect their history do not respect themselves", "Looking at the past, rule your future", "Continuing the glorious deeds of the older generation, we will pave the way for future generations". They are reflected in his works such as "I Will Share Thoughts with the People", "Tugan Elim-tiregim", "Ozekzhardy oylar".
During the lesson, a literary contest was held for the knowledge of winged expressions and aphorisms.
Togzhan Sagyndykova, 6th-grade student:
- I always liked Kazakh proverbs and sayings. Today at the lesson, I have learned a lot of winged expressions, legends, aphorisms, and proverbs. They show the human traits and values of our society. I especially like the proverbs about friendship: "Where there is unity, there is prosperity."
