ABSTRACT

The Azerbaijani language is the national treasure of our people. The history of each language is closely connected with the history of the people and nation that bear that language. Therefore, it is necessary to base ourselves on history when determining the history of the formation and formation of the language. In order to maintain the relevance of the topic, it is considered more appropriate to conduct this historical research in two directions:

1. Research into the history of the development of the language.

2. Research into the history of the use of the language under different names.

The modern Azerbaijani literary language has reached its current level of development after going through long stages. As in all nations, the language of the Azerbaijani people is one of the main factors determining its national existence. The history of the development of the Azerbaijani literary language is divided into the following periods:

I period - the period of formation and gradual development of the Azerbaijani literary language (V-XVIII centuries)

II period - the period of complete stabilization of the Azerbaijani literary language (XIV century)

III period - the period of development of the Azerbaijani literary language (the period from the beginning of the XX century to the present day). The typological division of languages ​​is based on morphological structure, while the genealogical division is based on kinship origin. According to typological classification, the Azerbaijani language is an agglutinative language. According to genealogical division, this language belongs to the Oghuz group of Turkic languages.
