As the head of the Temirtau Language Development Center Akhmetzhanova Meruert Bagdatovna noted, the decision to switch to Latin became one of the most important components of the Ruhani Zhangyru program. The seminar also explained in detail the spelling of words in the Latin alphabet, their spelling rules and peculiarities of words of foreign origin.

Seminar participants also consolidated their skills in practice, conducted exercises on the knowledge of the Latin alphabet. At the end of the seminar, everyone sang karaoke on the song of the famous Kazakh composer Sh. Kaldayagov “Arys zahasynda” in Latin.
