LINGUISTIC AND NON-LINGUISTIC CAUSES FOR POSITIVE AND NEGATIVE PROCESSES IN THE SPEECH OF KAZAKH YOUTH

Abstract

Although the number of Kazakh-speaking young people is currently growing, the quality of the Kazakh language they speak is not satisfactory. It has been a point of discussion in the Kazakh press and social networks recently. Therefore, in order to bring this issue into the subject of linguistic research and show it on actual examples, a study of the oral speech of students of two well-known universities in Kazakhstan was conducted. The facts that refer to positive and negative processes in the oral speech of young people were established and analyzed. In this paper, we identify linguistic and non-linguistic causes of those processes in the oral utterances of students. The research data includes a video where the university students exchange opinions on specific topics. The words used inappropriately were transcribed from and discussed. The analysis is performed on the general introductory content of the topic and the structure of the speech of each student. In order to achieve the goal, linguistic causes are analyzed at the level of phonetics, morphology, and syntactic structures, and the factors influencing non-linguistic causes are determined.
