An event dedicated to International Mother Language Day was held at Azerbaijan Technical University (AzTU) jointly organized by the Department of Humanities and the Student Trade Union Committee (STUC).
Delivering an introductory speech at the event, AzTU Vice-Rector Rashad Aliyev evaluated this meeting, which included the issues of promoting and encouraging the ideas of Azerbaijaniness, as a very important and commendable event. He especially emphasized that the mother language plays an important role in enriching a person’s spiritual world, expanding his worldview, and obtaining excellent education, and gave his recommendations to young students in this direction.
Then, the head of the Department of Humanities Habib Mirzayev and the professor of the department Eyyub Karimov made speeches and noted that language is the most important tool in the formation of a person’s personality and the enrichment of his spirituality. In this regard, the protection and development of our mother language is the sacred duty of every citizen. It is our mother language that preserves and transmits material and spiritual heritage from generation to generation. The role of our writers and poets in the formation of our native language as one of the richest languages in the world was also specially noted.
Later, AzTU graduate, winner of the “Ben şarkı söylersem” music competition broadcast on “TRT Music” TV channel Farhad Rahimli, AzTU graduate Ahmad Valiyev and AzTU student Alijan Aliyev performed musical numbers dedicated to the native language, including songs composed by composers that contain the spirit of patriotism.
A video clip dedicated to the valuable ideas of the great leader Heydar Aliyev about the Azerbaijani language, as well as compositions prepared based on examples of poems about the native language performed by AzTU students, were demonstrated at the event.
