Data confidence 70 medium
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 given article considers the relevance of the English language and the level of its functioning as an academic lingua franca in Kazakhstani periodicals. Authors particularly dwell on English language articles published in scientific and methodical journal Eurasian Journal of Philology: Science and Education recommended by the Committee for Control of Education and Science of the Ministry of Education and Science of the Republic of Kazakhstan (CCES MES RK) in the period from 2010 to 2019 years. Due to the quantitative method, the high tendency of publishing English language articles has been identified in the journal Eurasian Journal of Philology: Science and Education. As a result it is evident that in the academic setting English is sharply becoming the lingua franca as a means of exchanging scientific data and fixing the main results of research. The largest number of English-language articles were presented in the section of Linguistics. However, the statistical data enables us to assume the progressive use of English as an academic lingua franca in all areas of philological sciences.
