“O‘zbek yangi alifbosini tuzishda asarlar” risolasi xususida

Abstract

At the beginning of the last century, the devotees of the nation, who appeared on the stage of history under the name of Jadids, dreamed of building a state with a developed economy and science. To do this, it was necessary, first of all, to make the nation literate, to educate young people who have acquired modern knowledge. To this end, they established schools in a new way.The Arabic script, which had been used as the main script for more than a thousand еras, was reformed due to difficulties in reading and teaching. When the reform of the Arabic script did not give the expected result, the issue of the transition to the Latin script, like other Turkic na-tions, comes to the agenda.After the beginning of the movement for the transition from the Arabic script to the Latin, Uzbek intellectuals published articles on the se-lection of letters for the existing sounds, their scientific justification, and organized various council meetings and conferences. Should singarmo- nistic dialects be based on when composing a new alphabet? Or should one be based on corrupt dialects without singarmonism, which cannot reveal the nature of the Uzbek language? This issue was standing on the agenda, and there were a lot of disputes and controversies on this issue. Such con-troversies also influenced the movement of creating a national alphabet, resulting in the creation of four projects by different organizations. The article describes the last of these projects, the project created before the Baku conference.
