Can anyone give me the link to a proper Uzbek to English translator? Is Google Translate accurate? Because it recently gave two very different translations for "siz zorzsz" and other Uzbek sentences I put in.

Hi! I'm trying to learn Uzbek, and I need listening practice! Does anyone know of any YouTube channels with clear speech and closed captions? (The closed captions are the more important item). All the videos I've found only have auto-generated subtitles, and YouTube always thinks they're speaking Turkish :/

Hello!

I need to translate this video, which i think it's in Afghan Uzbeki.

Can someone help me, please?

Any apps that teach Uzbek other than Mango Languages? I'm looking for something like Duolingo, Busuu, or at least something with similar quality to them

Does anyone know where I can download the audio / video for the Georgetown Elementary Uzbek course? My book did not come with a CD and the link to the materials doesn't work: https://georgetownuniversitypresstextbooks.com/elementary-uzbek/

Does anyone know where I could find an affordable copy of this book (or even a pdf):

Uzbek Verbs: Grammar and Usage

https://www.amazon.com/dp/1931546940

• ISBN-10 ‏ : ‎ 1931546940
• ISBN-13 ‏ : ‎ 978-1931546942

Hello,

The Uzbek page on Omniglot states that the vowel "i" /i/ is realised as [ɨ] (like Russian and Kazakh "ы") in the middle and at the end of words, and as [i] elsewhere.

• I'd like to know if this is true for every words in Uzbek. I've listened to audio clips on Forvo and it sounds like [ɨ] and [i] are used interchangeably especially in the middle of words.

• In words with "i" followed by "y" like Navoiy, how is "iy" pronounced? As [ɨj], [ij] or [jj]?

• If I pronounced /i/ as [i] in all contexts, would it sound weird or unnatural to native speakers?

Thank you in advance.

Are the plosives /p, t, k, q/ and the affricate /tʃ/ in the Uzbek language aspirated or unaspirated?

Here are some videos of Islom Karimov speaking. They are pretty good for learning Uzbek because he talks regularly, but also has a very clear speaking voice

Hello,

I work for The Long War Journal, a site that reports on issues related to the War on Terror, as well as track various jihadist groups.

Today, a video was released by an Uzbek group in Syria. The group, Imam Bukhari Jamaat, fights alongside Al Qaeda and similar groups. In the video, they pledge allegiance to Mullah Muhammad Omar of the Taliban.

We at The Long War Journal would be greatly appreciative if someone could translate this video for us. Your name would be credited as the translator when the article on this is published. We do not require a full translation, but would like some key sentences and/or the general gist of what the speaker is saying.

Here is the video: http://vimeo.com/111194180

Thank you.

I recently started a blog to record the basics of Uzbek that I've been learning. It might be helpful to others, check it out if you feel so inclined: http://learninguzbek.wordpress.com/
