Английская Википедия:Dobrujan Tatar alphabet
Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Infobox writing system The Dobrujan Tatar alphabet or Dobrujan Crimean Tatar alphabet (Dobrujan Tatar: Tomrîğa Kîrîm Tatarşasîñ elifbesí)[1] is the writting system of Dobrujan Tatar. Before 1956 only Perso-Arabic script was used and after 1956, Latin alphabet was used.[2][3][4][5]
The children in Romania learn Tatar with Latin alphabet in the school. Also in public they use Latin alphabet. Many Tatars, who migrated to Turkey, use the Latin-based Turkish alphabet or the Crimean Tatar alphabet.
Alphabet
In 1 June 1956, Latin alphabet for Dobrujan Tatar was accepted[2] and it was used in University of Bucharest, the Faculty of Foreign Languages and Literatures.[3] Here is the alphabet, found in a grammatic book of Dobrujan Tatar by University of Bucharest.[6][7]
| Latin character | Name | Sound description and pronunciation |
|---|---|---|
| A a | A | This letter represents the low unrounded RTR or hard vowel /ɑ/ as in ana [ɑṉɑ] 'mother'. |
| Á á | Á, Hemzelí A | This letter occurring in a limited number of Arabic and Persian loanwords represents the near-low unrounded ATR or soft vowel not belonging to authentic Tatar language /æ/ as in sáát [s̶ææt̶] 'hour', 'clock'. |
| B b | Be | This letter represents two distinctive consonantal sounds: the hard voiced bilabial stop /ḇ/ as in bal [ḇaḻ] 'honey' and the soft voiced bilabial stop /b̶/ as in bel [b̶el̶] 'waist'. |
| Ç ç | Çe | This letter represents two distinctive consonantal sounds: the hard voiceless palato-alveolar affricate /ṯ͡ʃ̱/ as in ça-ça [ṯ͡ʃ̱ɑṯ͡ʃ̱ɑ] 'cha-cha' and the soft voiceless palato-alveolar affricate /t̶͡ʃ̶/ as in çeçen [t̶͡ʃ̶et̶͡ʃ̶en̶] 'chechen'.
Common to Turkic languages, these sounds are quasi non-existent in Tatar spoken in Dobruja where they have shifted from «Ç» to «Ş». Therefore, although authentic, these sounds could be equally treated as academic. |
| D d | De | This letter represents two distinctive consonantal sounds: hard voiced dental stop /ḏ/ as in dal [ḏɑḻ] 'branch' and the soft voiced dental stop/d̶/ as in deren [d̶er̶en̶] 'deep'. |
| E e | E | This letter represents the mid unrounded ATR or soft vowel /e/ as in sen [s̶en̶] 'you'. |
| F f | Fe | This letter occurs only in loanwords for it represents sounds that do not belong to authentic Tatar language. In authentic reading the foreign sound is naturalized and the letter reads as letter «P».

| G g | Ge | This letter represents the soft voiced palatal stop [ɟ̱] as in gene [ɟ̱en̶e] 'again', 'still' with its allophone the soft voiced velar stop /g/ as in gúl [gu̶l̶] 'flower', 'rose'. It also represents the hard voiced uvular fricative /ʁ/ as in gam [ʁɑm] 'grief'. |

| H h | He | Representing sounds that do not belong to authentic Tatar language this letter occurs only in loanwords. Most often, in authentic reading, when it reproduces the Arabic or Persian ه it is a silent letter or, if it is located at the beginning or end of the word, the sound is usually naturalized and the letter reads as letter «K». When it reproduces ح or خ the sound is usually naturalized as /q/. In academic reading it represents two distinctive consonantal sounds: the hard voiceless glottal fricative /h/ as in taht [ṯɑhṯ] 'throne' and the soft voiceless uvular fricative /χ/ as in heşt [χeʃ̶t̶] 'eight'. |

Other scripts
Some scripts have Dobrujan Tatar versions, but are actually not used or were just designed to create connection with Turkic languages.
Arabic
Arabic script for Turkic languages is used since the 10th century by Kara Khanids. Dobrujan Tatar uses a variant of Chagatai alphabet. After communist period in Romania it is redesigned. The vowels are explicitly marked all the time by Arabic diacritics,[8] like Xiao'erjing.
