On an event like that the most honoured guest is also asked to speak and toast to all.

When entering a house you (offer to) take of your shoes.

Languages are mainly Russian and Kazakh. English is less spoken, but this also can depend on which part of the country you are in.
Kazakh government is actively promoting Kazakhstan as a trilingual country (Russian, Kazakh and English), but English is not widely spoken.

Boiled or blackened sheep head. It's eaten everywhere for special occasions. And it should be divided. The ears, the eyes, pieces of brain go to different guests of honor.
The big ceremonial dish is boiled horsemeat and noodles. Very good.
