Guides for people who need Uzbek for real life: work, study, family, or the road. Written by the team building Uzbekcha.

Is Uzbek hard to learn? An honest answer for English, Russian, Turkish and Chinese speakers

Uzbek has no genders, no articles, phonetic spelling and one alphabet you already know. It also stacks suffixes and puts the verb last. How hard that is depends entirely on the language you start from.

The Uzbek Latin alphabet: all 29 letters, with pronunciation

Every letter of the official Uzbek Latin alphabet with the sound it makes, the five letters that don't exist in English (oʻ, gʻ, q, x, ng), the apostrophe that isn't a letter, and why Latin, not Cyrillic, is the script to learn.

Choosing how to learn? The guides answer one question each: which apps teach Uzbek, what to use instead, and how to learn it for your situation.
