Seems you already have cyrillic alphabet everyone uses.

  Cyrillic can't represent all of the sounds that Kazakh has. It borrows some symbols but even now it uses symbols that don't exist in Cyrillic. If you ever go to Kazakhstan you'll see that each official sign, such as in the Almaty metro, has 2-3 languages: Kazakh, Russian, and sometimes English.

    But 25 characters of Latin alphabet would represent it better?

      There's also 8 digraphs, which, while not really distinct in English, represent distinct sounds.

    > even now it uses symbols that don't exist in Cyrillic To be precise, it uses symbols that don't exist in Russian. Cyrillic is much broader than Russian, though. Ukrainian and Serbian use their own letters, too. In USSR, there was actually a standard called the "common alphabet", that combined all letters of all languages spoken in COMECON, both Cyrillic and Latin. https://ru.wikipedia.org/wiki/%D0%A4%D0%B0%D0%B9%D0%BB:Ob-alfavit-1.png https://ru.wikipedia.org/wiki/%D0%A4%D0%B0%D0%B9%D0%BB:Ob-al...
