Summary/Abstract: This scientific article uncovers interesting facts, connected not only with the life and the biography of academic Nikolay Yakovlevich Marr, but it also opens questions about the genetics of the Caucasian languages ( and a part of the Kartvelian languages, to which the Laz language is connected , along with his native language the Georgian language ). His scientific researches are bonded with those languages, and his research about the Eastern studies and the Caucaus studies. In this one we are paying attention on the Genetic links among those languages, no metter whether they are fully established or ascertained only partially. Through this research work we were faced with many challenges on its <new teaching language> or the so called <Japhetc theory>. With the name of Marr, it is connected the enforcement of the so called Marr’s quotes (‘’), determining the meaning of the word.
