Abstract

At the current time, turning to historical facts is a matter of great significance for the public life of Kazakhstan. It is known that in the Middle Ages the rich heritage of the Qypchaks, who had founded the Desht-i-Qypchak state in Eurasia and contributed to world civilization and culture, was written in different alphabets at certain periods of history. Historical documents, written in Armenian graphics in Qypchak, are based on knowledge of religion, literature, history, law, philosophy, natural sciences and talk about the political, economic, historical and cultural spheres of the life of the ancient state. Since the 20th century, the Armenian-Qypchak heritage, has been the subject of in-depth study by scientists, and, published in foreign academic editions, transcribed, supplemented by dictionaries and translations, its secrets are being revealed day by day. The term «Armenian-Qypchak» was introduced by scientists, and the life and cultural ties of the medieval Qypchaks and Armenians became the basis for their research. Today there is a need for more detailed study of the linguistic features through comparative analysis of the Armenian-Qypchak heritage set out in different genre texts.
