Editing Kazakh language (section)

== Phonology and orthography ==
Kazakh exhibits [[retracted tongue root|tongue-root]] [[vowel harmony]], with some words of recent foreign origin (usually of [[Russian language|Russian]] or Arabic origin) as exceptions. There is also a system of rounding harmony which resembles that of Kyrgyz, but which does not apply as strongly and is not reflected in the orthography. This system only applies to the open vowels {{IPA|/e/, /ɪ/, /ʏ/}} and not {{IPA|/ɑ/}}, and happens in the next syllables.<ref name="kaz-tili">{{Cite web |title=Произношение букв {{!}} kaz-tili.kz |url=https://kaz-tili.kz/su_fonetika.htm |access-date=2023-08-03 |website=kaz-tili.kz}}</ref> Thus, (in Latin script) {{lang|kk-latn|jūldyz}} 'star', {{lang|kk-latn|bügın}} 'today', and {{lang|kk-latn|ülken}} 'big' are actually pronounced as {{Lang|kk-latn|jūldūz}}, {{Lang|kk-latn|bügün}}, {{Lang|kk-latn|ülkön}}.

===Consonants===
The following chart depicts the consonant inventory of standard Kazakh;<ref>Some variations occur in the different regions where Kazakh is spoken, including outside Kazakhstan; e. g. ж / ج (where a Perso-Arabic script similar to the current [[Uyghur language#Writing system|Uyghur alphabet]] is used) is read {{IPA|[ʑ]}} in standard Kazakh, but {{IPA|[d͡ʑ]}} in some places.</ref> many of the sounds, however, are allophones of other sounds or appear only in recent loanwords. The 18 consonant phonemes listed by Vajda are without parentheses—since these are phonemes, their listed place and manner of articulation are very general, and will vary from what is shown. ({{IPA|/t͡s/}} rarely appears in normal speech.) Kazakh has 19 native consonant phonemes; these are the stops {{IPA|/p, b, t, d, k, ɡ, q/}}, fricatives {{IPA|/s, z, ɕ, ʑ, ʁ/}}, nasals {{IPA|/m, n, ŋ/}}, liquids {{IPA|/ɾ, l/}}, and two glides {{IPA|/w, j/}}.<ref name="Ozcelik">{{cite thesis |last=Öner |first=Özçelik |title=Kazakh phonology |publisher=Cambridge University |url=https://oozcelik.pages.iu.edu/papers/Kazakh%20phonology.pdf}}</ref> The sounds {{IPA|/f, v, χ, h, t͡s, t͡ɕ/}} are found only in loanwords. {{IPA|/ʑ/}} is heard as an alveolopalatal affricate {{IPA|[d͡ʑ]}} in the Kazakh dialects of Uzbekistan and Xinjiang, China. The sounds {{IPA|[q]}} and {{IPA|[ʁ]}} may be analyzed as allophones of {{IPA|/k/}} and {{IPA|/ɡ/}} in words with back vowels, but exceptions occur in loanwords.

===Vowels===
Kazakh has a system of 12 phonemic vowels, 3 of which are diphthongs. The rounding contrast and {{IPA|/æ/}} generally only occur as phonemes in the first syllable of a word, but do occur later allophonically; see the section on harmony below for more information. Moreover, the {{IPA|/æ/}} sound has been included artificially due to the influence of Arabic, Persian and, later, Tatar languages during the Islamic period.<ref name="slaviccenters">{{Cite book|url=https://slaviccenters.duke.edu/sites/slaviccenters.duke.edu/files/file-attachments/kazakh-grammar.pdf|title=A Grammar of Kazakh|last1=Wagner|first1=John Doyle|last2=Dotton|first2=Zura |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20230326024834/https://slaviccenters.duke.edu/sites/slaviccenters.duke.edu/files/file-attachments/kazakh-grammar.pdf |archive-date=Mar 26, 2023}}</ref> It can be found in some native words, however.

According to Vajda, the front/back quality of vowels is actually one of neutral versus [[retracted tongue root]].<ref name="Vajda"/>

Phonetic values are paired with the corresponding character in Kazakh's Cyrillic and current Latin alphabets.

* There is significant debate over the Kazakh vowel phoneme chart, but all analysis agrees on an eight-vowel system with {{IPA|[æ]}} being artificially added due to influence from Arabic and Persian.
* The vowel {{IPA|/e̞/|lang=kk}} is often pronounced {{IPA|/je̞/|lang=kk}} at the beginning of the word, with exceptional root e-. Urban Kazakh tends to palatalize all {{IPA|/e̞/|lang=kk}}, caused by Russian influence.<ref name="Muhamedowa">{{Cite book |last=Muhamedowa |first=Raihan |title=Kazakh: A Comprehensive Grammar |date=2016-09-24 |publisher=Routledge |isbn=978-1-138-82863-6 |edition=1st |location=London New York |language=English}}</ref>

=== Vowel harmony ===
Kazakh exhibits [[Retracted tongue root|tongue-root]] [[vowel harmony]] (also called soft-hard harmony), and arguably weakened rounding harmony which is implied in the first syllable of the word. All vowels after the first rounded syllable are the subject to this harmony with the exception of {{IPA|/ɑ/}}, and in the following syllables, e.g. {{Lang|kk|өмір}} {{IPA|[ø̞mʏr]|lang=kk}}, {{Lang|kk|қосы}} {{IPA|[qɒso]|lang=kk}}. Notably, urban Kazakh tends to violate rounding harmony, as well as pronouncing Russian borrowings against the rules.<ref name="Muhamedowa"/>

=== Stress ===
Most words in Kazakh are stressed in the last syllable, except:<ref>{{cite web|url=https://kaz-tili.kz/gl05.htm|title=Ударение|website=Казахский ясык|access-date=24 January 2022}}</ref>
* When counting objects, numbers are stressed in the first syllable, but stressed in the last syllable in collective numbers suffixed by {{lang|kk-latn|-eu}} ({{lang|kk-latn|bıreu}}, {{lang|kk-latn|altau}} from {{lang|kk-latn|bır}}, {{lang|kk-latn|alty}}):
:{{lang|kk-latn|bır}}, {{lang|kk-latn|'''e'''kı}}, {{lang|kk-latn|üş}}, {{lang|kk-latn|tört}}, {{lang|kk-latn|bes}}, {{lang|kk-latn|'''a'''lty}}, {{lang|kk-latn|jetı}}, ...
:{{gloss|one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, ...}}
* Definite and negative pronouns are stressed in the first syllable:
:{{lang|kk-latn|bärıne}}  {{lang|kk-latn|'''eş'''kımge}}
:{{gloss|to everyone, to no one}}

=== Orthography ===
{{Main|Kazakh alphabets}}
Nowadays, Kazakh is mostly written in the Cyrillic script, with an Arabic-based alphabet being used by minorities in China. Since 26 October 2017, via Presidential Decree 569, Kazakhstan will adopt the Latin script by 2025.<ref name="Decree569">{{cite web |script-title=ru:О переводе алфавита казахского языка с кириллицы на латинскую графику|trans-title = On the change of the alphabet of the Kazakh language from the Cyrillic to the Latin script|language = RU|publisher = [[President of the Republic of Kazakhstan]]|url = http://www.akorda.kz/ru/legal_acts/decrees/o-perevode-alfavita-kazahskogo-yazyka-s-kirillicy-na-latinskuyu-grafiku|archive-url = https://web.archive.org/web/20171027180526/http://www.akorda.kz/ru/legal_acts/decrees/o-perevode-alfavita-kazahskogo-yazyka-s-kirillicy-na-latinskuyu-grafiku|date = 26 October 2017|access-date = 26 October 2017|archive-date = 27 October 2017|url-status = live}}</ref><ref>{{cite news|url = https://www.bbc.com/news/world-asia-41800186|title = Kazakhstan to Qazaqstan: Why would a country switch its alphabet?|date = 31 October 2017|work = [[BBC News]]|access-date = 31 October 2017|first1 = Andreas|last1 = Illmer|first2 = Elbek|last2 = Daniyarov|first3 = Azim|last3 = Rakhimov|url-status = live|archive-url = https://web.archive.org/web/20171031100824/http://www.bbc.com/news/world-asia-41800186|archive-date = 31 October 2017}}</ref>

Cyrillic script was created to better merge the Kazakh language with other languages of the [[USSR]], hence it has some controversial letter readings.

The letter У after a consonant represents a combination of sounds і {{IPA|/ɘ/|lang=kk}}, ү {{IPA|/ʉ/|lang=kk}}, ы {{IPA|/ə/|lang=kk}}, ұ {{IPA|/ʊ/|lang=kk}} with glide {{IPA|/w/|lang=kk}},<ref name=":0">{{Cite web |title=Произношение букв {{!}} kaz-tili.kz |url=https://kaz-tili.kz/su_fonetika.htm |access-date=2023-07-10 |website=kaz-tili.kz}}</ref> e.g. {{lang|kk|кіру}} {{IPA|[kɪ̞ˈrɪ̞w]|lang=kk}}, {{lang|kk|су}} {{IPA|[so̙w]|lang=kk}}, {{lang|kk|көру}} {{IPA|[kɵˈrʏ̞w]|lang=kk}}, {{lang|kk|атысу}} {{IPA|[ɑ̝təˈsəw]|lang=kk}}. Ю undergoes the same process but with {{IPA|/j/}} at the beginning.

The letter И represents a combination of sounds: i {{IPA|/ɘ/|lang=kk}} (in front-vowel contexts) or ы {{IPA|/ə/|lang=kk}} (in back vowel contexts) + glide {{IPA|/j/|lang=kk}},<ref name=":0" /> e.g. {{lang|kk|тиіс}} {{IPA|[tɪ̞ˈjɪ̞s]|lang=kk}}, {{lang|kk|оқиды}} {{IPA|[wo̞qəjˈdə]|lang=kk}}. In Russian loanwords, it is realized as {{IPA|/ʲi/|lang=kk}} (when stressed) or {{IPA|/ʲɪ/|lang=kk}} (when unstressed), e.g. {{lang|kk|изоморфизм}} {{IPA|[ɪzəmɐrˈfʲizm]|lang=kk}}.

The letter Я represents either {{IPA|/jɑ/|lang=kk}} or {{IPA|/jæ/|lang=kk}} depending on vowel harmony.

The letter Щ represents {{IPA|/ʃː/|lang=kk}}, e.g. {{lang|kk|ащы}} {{IPA|[ɑ̝ʃ.ˈʃə]|lang=kk}}.

Meanwhile, the letters В, Ё, Ф, Х, Һ, Ц, Ч, Ъ, Ь, Э are only used in loanwords—mostly those of Russian origin, but sometimes of Persian and Arabic origin. They are often substituted in spoken Kazakh.
