Jaqsy sóz - jarym yrys/A good word is half the good.

In accordance with the different types of human relations, the national specificity of human communication also differs. The person is very sensitive to the good word, to the ethics of the word. This is especially true of the Kazakhs, who adhere to the communication of a high humanism, expressed in respect for the elders and in caring attitude towards the younger generation. This is very well expressed in the proverb:

 

«Úlkenmen ıilip sóıles, kishimen syzylyp sóıles. Iilip sóıleskende beliń búgilmeıdi, syzylyp sóıleskende sóziń úzilmeıdi. – Talk to the elder with a bow, your courtesy will not break the politeness. ”

Kazakhs attached great importance to the ethics and aesthetics of the word, tried to harmonize their speech. There are many Proverbs and popular expressions about the meaning of the ethics of the word. For example
