Abstract
The aim of this article is to describe the key aspects of adaptation of North Caucasians who emigrated to Europe in the 1920-s. The author considers language problems (French, Russian and North Caucasian languages) and problems of education and training in Europe. The article is prepared on the basis of some group of archival materials. These materials re from Russian and French archival funds, materials collected by the author of field ethnographic interviews with children of emigrants of the first wave, as well as published materials (materials of emigrant journals and Newspapers). This study was a new research on theme of adaption in the sphere of language and education among North Caucasian emigrants. The author studies the level of knowledge of the North Caucasians of the French language, the role of the Russian language in the Caucasian emigrant environment and finally, the degree of preservation of the national languages of the peoples of the North Caucasus. Education of North Caucasian emigrants includes two aspects: characteristics of education received by North Caucasian emigrants in the Russian Empire (higher, secondary education), and description of the system of education in European countries (Czech Republic, France and other European countries).
