The nation from Central Asia, Kazakhstan, is changing the alphabet from Cyrillic to Latin to something supported by the West.
The change was announced in mid-February, and prompted numerous reactions.
“This is best” THE U.S.A. He had just been shown the latest version of the new alphabet, approved by the country's president, Nursultan Nazarbayev.
The government announcement had encountered numerous criticisms from the population ʹ an unusual event in a country that has been ruled by the hands of the Nazarene for nearly three decades.
According to data collected in 2016, ethnic Kazakhs populate the country by 2/3, while the Russian minority in Kazakhstan is about 20%. The past decades in the USSR have caused Kazakhs to learn all Russian, and according to statistics, 94% of them speak fluently of it. Kazakh language is spoken fluent by 74% of the population, writes Periscopi.
