Abstract

The article presents results of the scientific research carried out to
construct the most effective Kazakh alphabet based on Latin graphics. The idea of
switching the Kazakh alphabet to Latin graphics related to enhancing the state
language and helping it to become a part of informational community. The methods
of phonetic and contrastive analysis were used to reveal the features of using Latin
graphics to represent nationally specific sounds. The research showed that the usage
of diacritics was a feature of successfully switching to Latin graphics. The usage of
diacritical marks has been pointed out as an effective way to adopt Latin letters to the
phonetic system of Kazakh.
