COMMUNICATIVE UNIVERSALS AS A MEANS OF TEACHING MULTILINGUAL STUDENTS OF LANGUAGE UNIVERSITIES

Language universals in their deep meaning from the point of view of the methodology of teaching foreign languages (linguodidactic universals) as a concept containing in addition to the linguistic, sociocultural, cultural and pragmatic components are considered in this article. Also in this paper we will focus on the last component, pragmatic or communicative, and on the example of its reflection in teaching of Kazakh and English languages. Since the communicative function of the language is the leading one, it is possible to speak about the existence of communicative (pragmatic) universals, steps and components that we will analyze. This study shows that learning communication in a foreign language, taking into account the identified pattern, is possible on the material of any language. Therefore, mastering this system while learning the first foreign language can facilitate the development of communicative competencies in the second foreign language, despite the linguistic differences of these languages. Also in this article it is presented that the consideration of communicative universals in the teaching of several languages is an effective way of forming functional multilingualism in a short time.
