Onomastics, in French "Onomastics", in English "Onomastics" – that is, it is a field of science expressed by the terms onomastics in all languages. This field includes history, geography, religion, ethnology, etc. and mainly linguistics. Toponyms are an important part of the culture in which beliefs, colors and numbers are often used among the Turkic tribes, which stems from the understanding of the whole society.

In this regard, the issues related to the assignment of geographical names to land and water concern not only Islam, but also go deeper into history. Many beliefs, from totemic animal names to shamanic beliefs, are used as names of lands and waters. These are toponyms, such as Snake Lake, haunted mansion, devil's Creek. The meanings, origin, historical and geographical features of the words related to these names are the subject of a separate study.

The peculiarities of the use of geographical and water names in the Turkic language also deserve a separate study. For example, there are toponyms that give all the meanings of the name "Black". In the geographical names of Montenegro, the Black Sea, Karasu, black village, Karatau, etc., the different meanings of the color name reflect the richness of our language. In 1959, A.Abdrakhmanov conducted an independent study on this issue in Kazakhstan under the title "Kazakstannyn zher-su ataulary". Later, research on this topic began to spread widely.

The use of numbers as geographical names is also full of examples. In the Turkish faith, biblical (formal) numerical toponyms are used, such as 3, 7, 5, 40. Toponyms such as Ushtobe, Bestobe, fortieth cemetery, etc. Another grammatical feature that attracts attention in geographical names associated with numbers is that numbers mean the plural when used with other nouns, in geographical names this concept refers only to the name of one place. For example, we say "three people", not "three people", which means that a person is three, not one. However, this is not taken into account in geographical names.

The history of the study of geographical names in Turkish dates back to very ancient times, although it is not a separate study. This clarifies the historical theme considered in almost all studies. In other words, it is intended to compare the geographical name mentioned in historical sources with its current status. We will look at these issues in our article.
