The official languages in Kazakhstan are Kazakh and Russian. Kazakh is the state language, while Russian is widely used in business and government. Both are taught in schools, and most Kazakhs are fluent in both languages. English is becoming more popular, especially among young people in cities. Kazakh belongs to the Turkic language family and is written in Cyrillic, though there’s a gradual shift toward the Latin alphabet. The mix of languages reflects Kazakhstan’s multicultural society. Visitors will find that communication is quite easy in urban areas.
