Russia is a multinational country, which means it is multilingual
Russia is a multinational country, which means it is multilingual. Linguistic scientists number 150 languages - here, such a language as Russian, which is spoken by 97.72% of the population in Russia, and the language of the Negidal - a small people (only 622 people!), Living on the Amur River, are equally taken into account.
Some languages are very similar: people can each speak their own and at the same time understand each other perfectly, for example, Russian - Belarusian, Tatar - Bashkir, Kalmyk - Buryat. In other languages, although they also have a lot in common - sounds, some words, grammar - it will still not be possible to agree: a Mari with a Mordovian, a Lezgin with an Avar. And finally, there are languages - scientists call them isolated - that are not like any other. These are the languages of the Kets, Nivkhs and Yukagirs.
Most of the languages of Russia belong to one of four language families:
Indo-European;
Altai;
Ural;
North Caucasian.
Each family has a common ancestor language - the proto-language. The ancient tribes that spoke such a proto-language migrated, mixed with other peoples, and once a single language broke up into several. This is how many languages emerged on Earth.
Let's say Russian belongs to the Indo-European family. In the same family - English and German, Hindi and Farsi, Ossetian and Spanish (and many, many others). Part of the family is a group of Slavic languages. Here Czech and Polish, Serbo-Croatian and Bulgarian, etc. coexist with Russian.
The Altai family in Russia is represented by three groups: Turkic, Mongolian and Tungus-Manchu. There are only two peoples speaking Mongolian languages - Kalmyks and Buryats, but one listing of the Turkic languages may surprise. These are Chuvash, Tatar, Bashkir, Karachai-Bal-Karsk, Nogai, Kumyk, Altai, Khakass, Shor, Tuvan, Tofalar, Yakut, Dolgan, Azeri, etc. Most of these peoples live in Russia.
