Abstract

The precious legacy of ancient Kazakhs to younger generations, one of the first values is indeed the language. Language is a witness of previous generation’s existence. Language and human existence are considered in unity, language phenomena are studied in combination with the worldview, culture, as well as system of thinking. Spiritual, cultural being determines our orientation in life, manifesting itself in a language. As we are all aware, many thousands of years ago, man lost in the fight against natural disasters more than it won. Development of human being as a race and language are considered together. We analyze them in unity with the worldview, culture and way of thinking. People who suffer from the rear, the elements, various catastrophes, evoked a variety of beliefs, believed in them. At the same time we still do not know which belief came first and which belief was applied last. One of the beliefs that arose from the old worldview is the totem of the "blue wolf” (Kok-bori). Since ancient times, the image of the wolf has occupied a large place in the traditional beliefs of different peoples. This image has a great place in the worldview of the nomadic peoples of Central Asia, especially the Turks, as a monument of material culture. In many sources, in Ancient Scripture, the wolf -beast is a predator of steppe origin, not an animal, but a mother animal, standing at the origins of its kind. In addition, foreign, Russian scientists, domestic researchers, referring to various sources, write that the ancient Turkic tribes reached the level of totem, they estimate it as a sacred beast, some elements are found in household attributes. The Turkic people include: Kazakh, Kyrgyz, Uzbek, Azerbaijani, Turkish, Nogai, Bashkir, Tatar, Altai, Karakalpak, Uighur, Turkmen, Saka, Gagauz, Madiyar, Karachay, etc. Folklore and mythological networks manifest the spiritual world of the people and are fixed in the minds of the younger generation as a reflection of the universal worldview.
