The New Turkic Alphabet, known in Turkic languages as Yañalif (Tatar: jaꞑa əlifʙa / jaꞑalif, pronounced [jɑˈŋɑ ælʲifˈbɑ] / [jɑŋɑˈlʲif]; lit. 'new alphabet' or 'Neo-Alphabet'), is the first Latin alphabet used during the Latinisation in the Soviet Union in the 1930s for the Turkic languages. It replaced the Arabic script-based alphabets like Yaña imlâ used for Tatar in 1928, and was replaced by the Cyrillic alphabet in 1938–1940.
