Naming, nomenclature, and terms also provide important clues to people about the culture of a society while revealing the originality and richness of its language. In Kazakh Turkish, which has made significant distinctions in naming, nomenclature and terminology, and has rich vocabulary it was noticed that some words representing a certain age or certain age periods took place and these words were detected.
