Annotation The article concerns the spheres of the Dagestan literary languages functioning. The results of a social-linguistic poll state the fact of the dominating status of the Dagestan literary languages in all spheres of personal and social life of the Dagestan villagers. The article gives a characteristic of the language situation in the Republic of Dagestan and reveals the problems of the Dagestan literary languages functioning in the modern world. The correlations between the Dagestan literary languages functions reveal dynamic tendencies in their social functions development and determines quantitative parameters of their functioning. It is observed that the official acknowledgement of the state status of the Dagestan literary languages has strengthened their positions in non-official spheres, but failed to promote its further functional development. A probable way out is seen in circumspect and considered language politics that would promote the rise and flourishing of not only the Dagestan literary languages, but also the Dagestan languages in whole.
Key words sociolinguistics, functioning, extra language reasons, state language, nonofficial sphere, status, dynamics.
