Abstract

The actual issue is the indication of the ancient Kipchak names and the cultural, linguistic continuity of the modern Kazakh onomastic system. This is due to the fact that the demonstration of the depths of this continuity in the historical linguistic ethnogenetic continuity, the dissemination of opinions about the Kipchaks, and the study of the laws of the Kipchak language in comparison with the Turkic languages requires weighing the history of the Kazakh language, which spans hundreds of centuries. In this regard, the worldview, customs, beliefs, way of life, and stonecarved writing of the Kipchaks are considered to be a very valuable source for determining the origin of many anthroponyms in the modern Kazakh language. The main scientific results and conclusions of the work carried out in this area, i.e. the determination of anthroponyms and ethnonyms in the Old Kipchak language, allow us to identify linguistic and ethnogenetic connections and the continuity between the Kipchaks of the Middle Ages and modern Kazakhs. In this regard, the results of the research can contribute to the study of the problems of ethnology and the history of the language of the Middle Turkic period of Turkology. It goes without saying that the definition of the history of anthroponyms that have become the object of study in Russian and world Turkology will be a painstaking effort that will be included in Turkic onomastics. A high-quality translator from Kazakh to Russian and Therefore, the main goal of Kazakh onomastics should be to solve problems related to anthroponyms, ethnonyms, and ethnotoponyms by determining the etymology of the onomastic system in the Old Kipchak language.
