Uyghur is currently written officially in arabic script, but sometimes it's written in cyrillic and latin too. But when it's written in latin there are different ways to write it which makes not clear. Therefore, I've created this alphabet trying to be more phonemic possible in order to write Uyghur in latin properly. It is now in a very early stage of development, so some changes may occur to it in the future as the creator see fit. For any questions or suggestions please use the email link below.
