Kazakh Language Overview
Kazakh (?аза? т?л?, Qazaq tili) is part of the Kipchak branch of the Turkic language family and serves as the official language of Kazakhstan. It is the mother tongue of Kazakh communities worldwide and is widely spoken in Kazakhstan, China, Russia, Uzbekistan, and beyond. Over time, the Kazakh writing system has transitioned from the Arabic alphabet to the Cyrillic alphabet and is currently shifting to the Latin alphabet.
As one of Central Asia’s largest and fastest-growing economies, Kazakhstan presents vast opportunities for international businesses, yet its unique cultural and linguistic requirements demand careful attention. Accurate and culturally appropriate communication is key to success in this multicultural market.
