Abstract: The article analyzes the role of the national language in the formation of ethnocultural identity on the example of the polyethnic Republic of Adygea. It is proved that there are conditions in the republic for a significant expansion of the sphere of distribution of the Adyghe language. Ethnosociological studies conducted in Adygea have confirmed the importance of the role of the national language in the formation of the ethnic and cultural identity of the Adygs, despite significant transformations of society in recent decades. It is concluded that the Adyghe language is an important and significant marker of ethnocultural identity in the region. At the same time, the problems associated with the development of the Adyghe language are determined. The ways of strengthening the positions of the Adyghe language and preserving the ethno-cultural identity of the Adygs in the modern world are proposed.
