In 2009 there were about 12.8 million speakers of Kazakh: about 10 million in Kazakhstan, 1.25 million in China, almost 1 million in Uzbekistan, and about 100,000 in Mongolia.

Kazakh is spoken in the northeast of China in Gansu and Qinghai provinces and in Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region. In Uzbekistan it is spoken in Karakalpakstan Autonomous Republic. In Mongolia it is spoken in Bayan-Olgiy and Hovd provinces.

Kazakh is also known as Qazaq, Kaisak, Kazak, Kosach, Kazax, Gazaqi, Kazakhi or Qazaqi. The word Kazakh comes from the ancient Turkic word qaz (to wander). The word cossack comes from the root [ source ].

Kazakh was first written with the Arabic script during the 19th century when a number of poets, educated in Islamic schools, incited revolt against Russia. Russia's response was to set up secular schools and devise a way of writing Kazakh with the Cyrillic alphabet, which was not widely accepted. By 1917, the Arabic script was reintroduced, even in schools and local government.

In 1927, Kazakh nationalist movement sprang up but was soon suppressed. At the same time the Arabic script was banned and the Latin alphabet was imposed for writing Kazakh. The Latin alphabet was in turn replaced by the Cyrillic alphabet in 1940.

Since 2006, as part of a modernization program, the government of Kazakhstan decided to replace the Cyrillic alphabet with the Latin alphabet. The switch to the Latin alphabet official started in October 2017.

This version of the Latin alphabet was adopted in October 2017, and is currently in official use. It was revised in 2018, and several more amendments have been proposed since then. A new version will be used from 2023.

Kazakh is a Turkic language that is spoken in Kazakhstan , a country in central Asia . It, along with Russian , is one of Kazakhstan's official languages . [3]

The Kazakh language had been written in the Cyrillic alphabet since the Russian Empire started to occupy that country in the 19th century. In 1917, people began to use the Arabic alphabet , but the Russians were not able to make them use Cyrillic. [4]

After World War I , the Turkic countries started to use the Latin alphabet , led by Kemal Atatürk of Turkey . Because of this, from 1927 to 1939, Kazakhstan, then part of the Soviet Union , changed from the Arabic to the Latin alphabet. [5] But Stalin made a law in 1940 that all the countries that were part of the Soviet Union had to use Cyrillic, in order to bring Kazakhstan and the rest of the countries in Central Asia in line with the Russian style. [6]

Following the dissolution of the Soviet Union in 1991, the newly-independent Republic of Kazakhstan allowed the old Latin alphabet to be used, but continued to use Cyrillic as the main alphabet. In 2006, president Nursultan Nazarbayev started a project to introduce a standard form of the Latin alphabet as the official script of his country. A version of the new Latin alphabet, which used apostrophes for certain sounds, was created in April 2017, [7] but was replaced with another one in February 2018 which instead uses diacritics on certain letters. [8] If all goes as planned, the Cyrillic alphabet will be fully replaced with Latin by 2025. [9]

The proposed Kazakh Latin alphabet has 38 letters:

Қазақша or қазақ тілі قازاقشا or قازاق تىلى Qazaqsha or qazaq tili
Kazakhstan, China, Mongolia, Russia, Kyrgyzstan, Uzbekistan
