Abstract. The purpose of the article is to study the significance of language as a means of encoding information, to
prove its influence on the process of storing and transferring information. The research methodology consists in
the application of various approaches: analytical – to study the literature on the topic of the article, systematic – to
study the language as a means of coding information using general scientific methods, first of all systematisation
and generalisation, as well as a comparative historical method. The scientific novelty lies in the fact that the paper
shows the importance of language as a necessary means of encoding information. Since ancient times, language has
been a necessary means of communication in society. It did not have such clearly defined forms, was inarticulate,
did not have specific rules and was not standardised, but with the development of society, language becomes more
normalised. This played a very important role in the existence of mankind, because with the help of language, our
ancestors managed to pass on a huge amount of experience, customs, traditions, cultural heritage and certain
norms to their descendants, and today we already consider the concept of language as a tool for encoding the
necessary information in various systems. And from this, accordingly, there arises a need to study language as a
means of encoding information. Conclusions. Due to the need to encode information, a variety of techniques began
to appear to solve this problem. Of course, methods of encoding information with the development of mankind
have changed from a simple shift of the alphabet to the emergence of modern digital systems. And as a result, the
emergence of the programming language as a special subtype of the artificial language is a consequence of the
development of computing technology. This is how special font complexes began to appear to designate characters
in electronic computer technology and systems built into it.
