On the issue of scientific research of the Lak language

the scientific study of the Lak language began in the 60s of the XIX century, when the famous researcher of Caucasian languages P.K. Uslar gave a detailed description of the Lak language on the basis of the Kurklin dialect of its Vitskhi dialect. Choosing the Vitskhi dialect to describe the Lak language is the right decision, as it unites the dialects of more than ten villages in this region. At the moment, the Lak language has been studied well in grammatical and lexical relations. In the second half of the last century, work was carried out in the field of research and improvement of the Lak language. Various dictionaries, educational literature, and monographs have been published. There is an interest in this language from foreign and domestic researchers. Monographs and a large number of scientific articles have been published that explore various issues of phonetics, morphology, syntax, dialect features, and vocabulary of the Lak language. In addition, original literature of various genres has been created and developed in this language. Many works of Russian and world literature have been translated into Lak. Of the modern researchers, I.H. Abdullaev has made the greatest contribution to the study of this language, who took an active part in all events dedicated to the study and preservation of Dagestani languages.
