LANGUAGE SITUATION IN THE REPUBLIC OF TUVA
After the collapse of the Soviet Union, in the 1990s the social life in the Republic of Tuva
is characterized by the renaissance of Tuvan national culture, traditions and customs. The

ethnic group (70%) in the republic and the stable position of the Tuvan language, its official
status in the republic, expansion of its functioning.

Tuvan language functioning has expanded; there is a trend of greater use of the Tuvan ethnic
group language. At the same time, the real changes in the linguistic practices of the Tuvan
language have not happened. Mainly the Tuvan language remains the language of family
communication.

conservation of traditional Tuvan culture is the public support in the expansion of the Tuvan
language functioning and creation of the favorable conditions for the preservation of
native language and traditions.
Key words: Ethnic group, national culture, language functioning.
