| Summary: | In February 2020, a unique publication came out under the title “Kryz-Azerbaijani-English dictionary”, prepared
by I. A. Gummetov and M. Rind-Pavlovsky. The publication was presented on February 8, 2020 in the
Khachmas ethnographic Museum in Azerbaijan with the invitation of the Kryz intelligence and representatives of
the Khachmas city hall. Employees of the Tsadasa Institute of language, literature and art of the Russian Academy
of Sciences were also invited to the presentation of the dictionary in Azerbaijan. The present dictionary is
exceptional in its originality and completeness as far as the various lexical units are concerned from the point
of their description and specification. The Kryz language is one of the non-written Lezgian languages of the
Nakh-Dagestan language family. The Kryz language is used in the household sphere. The reviewed book with
a description of the Kryz language lexemes consists of an introduction, two chapters, a list of abbreviations, and
an Appendix. The description of the Kryz language lexemes is confirmed by thematic indexes from the Azerbaijani
and English languages. The dictionary entry includes grammatical and stylistic characteristics of the three
languages. In general, the dictionary is characterized by a consistent description of both the vocabulary and
toponymy of the non-written language. |
