KYRGYZ
Kyrgyz is a Turkic language that has been
written in a Cyrillic alphabet since the early
1940s. However, Kyrgyzstan is in the process
of changing over to a modi fied Roman alpha-
bet. Russian also has official-language status,
but there is a strong push to promote Kyrgyz
as the predominant language of government,
media and education. In our pronunciation
guides,
ng
is pronounced as in 'sing',
ö
as the
'u' in 'fur' and
ü
as the 'ew' in 'few'.
