Abstract

A new understanding of the triad "language - culture - reality" from the second half of the twentieth century in terms of comprehending traditional spiritual culture acquires the value of preserving and transmitting the experience of generations. It is connected with the problem of the relationship between language and culture: the applicability of linguistic concepts and methods to the description of cultural phenomena; the possibility of structural, semantic and arealogical study of folk rituals, beliefs, folklore and mythology; with the difference between the cultural language and the verbal language; collection and interpretation of information about relic cultural models. An interdisciplinary article attempts to show that one of the conditions for the preservation and ethno-cultural development of an ethnos and a region in an era of rapid globalization is a ritual text, allowing to look at the language from the standpoint of the reflection and preservation of the cultural values of the people in the language, as well as the interpretation of semantics and symbolism contained in the ritual terminology. The relevance of the study is due to the fact that The North Caucasus region is a separate ethno-linguistic region, in which both the preservation of ethno-linguistic identity with its dependence on radical changes in social life, and the dynamics of the integration of culture, language and national heritage are of paramount importance.
