Uzbekistan published a new version of their alphabet

It is planned to accept a new version of Uzbek alphabet based on the Latin alphabet until the end of 2018, reports national Uzbek news agency.

The special group created by the Tashkent State University of the Uzbek language and literature published project of updated Uzbek alphabet.

Experts note that in the new version of the alphabet, instead of the apostrophes will be used diacritical marks, thus the alphabet will be closer to the alphabets of other Turkic languages and will become more convenient for use.
