背景

Kazakh is spoken principally in the Kazakh Republic, which stretches from the Chinese border to the Caspian Sea, by about 8 million people. It is one of the Turkic languages belonging to the Altaic family (Kipchak branch). Arabic, Cyrillic and also Latin scripts are used, but Cyrillic (introduced prior to World War II) is more frequent. Dialect differences are minor. There is increasing education in Kazakh. Many speak Russian as second language.
