Alexander Pushkin
In a world of only a few original languages that have arisen in different parts of The globe and at different, some no longer extant, continents, in the process of formation, development, mixing and separation of peoples arose more than six thousand of modern languages, half of which are endangered. International Mother Language Day is celebrated annually on 21 February, the day of the Ukrainian language and literature – on November 9. The history of mankind has always been inextricably linked to the speech, namely the ability to play different sounds (articulation) and the ability to articulate to say the words (pronunciation) identified a man from animal protection and helped to reach the top of its development. \"In the beginning was the Word and the Word was with God and the Word was God\" ().
