Gagauz alphabet information


The modern Gagauz alphabet is a 31-letter Latin-based alphabet modelled on the Turkish alphabet and Azerbaijani. It is used to write the Gagauz language.

During its existence, it has functioned on different graphic bases and has been repeatedly reformed. Previously, during Soviet rule, Gagauz's official script was Cyrillic, close to the Moldovan Cyrillic alphabet.

There are 3 stages in the history of Gagauz writing:

  • before 1957 – early attempts to create writing;
  • 1957–1993 – writing based on the Cyrillic alphabet;
  • since 1993 – modern writing based on the Latin alphabet.
