How this score is calculated

It is built from checkable properties of the record itself: whether the article has a DOI, how many independent sources confirmed its data, whether the required fields are filled in, and how recent the latest confirmation is. Disagreement between sources and a missing identifier lower it. A value of 80 or above means the record was published without further checking; 60 to 79 means it is published at reduced confidence, with a manual check advisable. A record verified by an editor by hand is never pushed below 90 by a recalculation. This scores our data about the article, not the article itself.

Abstract

The article examines the linguistic representation of the concept of "hospitality" in the Kazakh mentality. In the lexical system of every language, there are words that reflect the national characteristics of its people. To identify these features, the concept of "hospitality" was chosen as the object of study. Through the analysis of linguistic units, its place and significance in the system of spiritual and cultural values of the Kazakh people are revealed, and the features of the national mentality are determined through its linguistic representation. The aim of the article is to determine how the concept of "hospitality" manifests in the national consciousness and worldview of the Kazakh people and how it is reflected in linguistic data. Hospitality, as one of the main moral norms in the consciousness of the Kazakh people, has for centuries made a significant contribution to the formation of Kazakh culture.
