Abstract

The transition to the Latin alphabet represents a new stage in the development of the Kazakh language. Over the centuries, the Kazakh language has undergone various changes and is now becoming a reflection of our nation. However, when analyzing the experiences of different countries, it becomes evident that there are certain shortcomings even in spoken language, and modern linguists are increasingly raising concerns about the need for language modernization. The key foundation of words and the basis of speech is the alphabet. In our independent country, various proposals have been put forward regarding this issue, but none have been fully implemented in the language. Therefore, by comparing different orthographies and alphabets, we once again revisit and reassess our history. The innovations to be introduced will strengthen the role and status of the Kazakh language in society and enhance its official standing. Thus, by re-evaluating our history and drawing on accumulated knowledge and experience, we emphasize the importance of transitioning to the Latin script.
