PROBLEMS OF COMPOSING DICTIONARIES IN THE AVAR LANGUAGE AND WAYS OF THEIR SOLUTION

Abstract

The article describes some of the problems of compiling dictionaries in the Avar language and indicates ways to solve them. The basic principle of Avar writing is phonetic, where each individual sound is indicated by a letter in its main or only its sound meaning. Vowel sounds are subject only to quantitative reduction, voiced consonants within one word form are rarely stunned before unvoiced consonants, and unvoiced consonants are not voiced before voiced. The subject of the research is the existing spelling rules and their shortcomings from the point of view of their reflection in the existing dictionaries of the Avar language. The purpose of the article is to show the ways of solving the existing problems of spelling of the Avar language. The scientific novelty of the article is that for the first time a detailed analysis of the spelling problems of the Avar language is carried out. The practical significance of the study lies in the fact that its results will be useful in compiling various dictionaries for the Avar language.
