People communicate in numerous languages. Each of them has its own characteristics of pronunciation, spelling and use of words. Speech captures changes in the cultural traditions of society and its development. They are reflected in works of literature and oral creativity of the people. The international holiday calls for preserving the accumulated legacy of achievements.
Who's celebrating
Everyone involved in the study and transmission of knowledge about speech and writing is related to the celebrations. Among them are researchers, teachers of literature, Russian language, and library staff. Teachers, students, and graduate students of philological faculties of higher educational institutions consider the holiday. The event is attended by everyone who has received an appropriate education and is interested in writing, their relatives, acquaintances, friends and loved ones.
History and traditions of the holiday
The event originates from Ivan Klimenko’s article “Let there be a Day!”, published in one of the newspapers. He is also famous for creating the Russian word game (an intellectual game accompanied by competitions in the field of philology). The author described the idea of the holiday in his work, submitting it to the readers.
The initiative, outlined on the pages of the printed publication, initially did not find any support from the Russian authorities. The United Nations turned out to be much more efficient. In 2010, the UN declared June 6 as Russian Language Day, and already in 2011 the President of Russia issued a decree. The document fixed this date at the state level. It has a symbolic meaning, as stated in the legislative act.
The event is dedicated to the birth of A. Pushkin, one of the most significant figures of the so-called golden age. An outstanding personality is considered the author of modern literary norms for the use of words, and his works are included in the world cultural heritage. Some researchers believe that the poet’s contribution is exaggerated, and his image has been elevated to the rank of a cult, at the instigation of I. Stalin.
Russian Language Day 2020 is widely popular in educational and professional circles. The event is celebrated at the festive table. Colleagues discuss news, tell stories from life and workdays. Congratulations and toasts are heard, ending with the clink of glasses. The government makes speeches that talk about supporting the language. Those gathered exchange valuable gifts. One of the most desirable and widespread is the rare book.
On this day, it is customary to attend cultural events: film screenings, theater performances, exhibitions, concerts of song and dance groups. Students organize open readings. Excerpts from classical works and reports from researchers are heard. Particular attention is paid to young authors. Writers present their works and leave signatures for everyone. Radio and television stations broadcast programs dedicated to literature and related topics.
On the eve of the date or on the next weekend, philologists go outdoors. Dishes are prepared over an open fire, and leisure time is spent outdoors. This is facilitated by the warm weather of the summer month. Relatives, friends and loved ones are usually invited to picnics.
The birthday of the Russian language is one of the events aimed at its preservation and development.
