| Description | In any culture, the mother tongue plays an important role in humanizing children, educating them in their national culture, mastering the norms, and thus forming ethnic-cultural identity. Human culture cannot exist without a system of signs and symbols, and according to the German cultural philosopher E. Cassirer, the nature of human existence is symbolic. The clear expression of nature in this symbol is an important form of inculturation of children, i.e., teaching and integrating them into their native culture, while being an oral ritual in Mongolian nomadic culture. Mongolians have a history of educating children according to the variety and rich standards of the mother tongue at every stage of children’s development and age. For example, from infancy, through loving caressing, lullabies, and melodies, his artistic sensibilities and genealogical information have been instilled in his ears and mind. The fact that the rich vocabulary associated with the development and evolution of modern culture has been forgotten is the basis of the topic of this study. To find out the current state of the use of the words caressing and lullabies, 200 people were interviewed using a questionnaire. According to the study, the meaning of lullabies was highly valued by the majority of participants, while the use of traditional words to caress their children is at a low level. This leads to the conclusion that it is necessary to spread the knowledge and understanding of this aspect to young families and parents. |
