Summary
Every national language possesses its own deeper meaning created over the centuries as a result of unique historical, geographical, ecological, political, religious and aesthetic development. Let us try, briefly, to elucidate this interconnection between language, spirituality, mentality and cultural identity using as an example the linguistic transformations of the ingenious Ural Mari people throughout XVIIth–XXIst centuries.

Their notions of good, evil, loyalty and betrayal are reflected through the familial, communal. Facets of Culture in the Age of Social Transition and tribal connections and are linguistically encoded.
