I use a version of the Turkish alphabet (more similar to the Latin alphabet used for Tatar) to represent Turkic languages phonemically. This tries to summarise the system.
orthography | Kazakh | Kyrgyz | Tatar | Turkish | Uzbek |
---|---|---|---|---|---|
a | а /a/ | а /ɑ/ | а /ɒ/ | а /ɑ/ | a /a/ |
ä | ә /æ/ | — /a~æ/ | ә /æ/ | — | a /æ/ |
aa, ā | — | аа /ɑː/ | — | ağ(a) /ɑː/ | — |
â, å | — | — /ɔ/ | а /ɒ/ | — | o /ɒ~ɔ/ |
b | б /b/ | б /b~w/ | б /b/ | b /b/ | |
e | е /i̯ɘ/ | e, э /e/ | e /ɘ/ | e /ɛ/ | |
ee, ē | — | ээ /eː/ | — | — | |
i | і /ɘ/ | и /i/ | и /i/ | i /ɪ/ | i /ɨ/ |
