KAZAKH GRAMMATOLOGY: А. BAITURSYNULY'S LEGACY IN NATIONAL WRITING AND LITERACY
Аннотация
This article delves into the significant contributions of Аkhmet Baitursynuly, a prominent Kazakh linguist, to the field of Kazakh linguistics, with a specific focus on Kazakh writing and literacy. The selection of this topic is driven by three key reasons. Firstly, the contemporary relevance of Kazakh writing is paramount, as since 2017, the Republic of Kazakhstan has undertaken an initiative to transition its writing system from Cyrillic to Latin script. Consequently, various issues pertaining to Kazakh writing, including the Kazakh alphabet and orthography, have arisen, leading researchers to explore the origins of the Kazakh national alphabet, which, in this context, is attributed to Akhmet Baitursynuly. This aligns with our second reason, as the previous year marked the 150th anniversary of Akhmet Baitursynuly, an occasion that has been commemorated at the international level by UNESCO. Lastly, our article is closely connected to the theme of our doctoral dissertation, and while it primarily serves as a review article, it encompasses the findings of a survey conducted to gain deeper insights into the research topic.
