Why translate your content into Turkmen?
Turkmen is the official language of Turkmenistan and is also spoken by Turkmen communities in Iran, Afghanistan and beyond. It belongs to the Oghuz branch of the Turkic family, closely related to Turkish and Azerbaijani, and shares many features with Uzbek.
Turkmenistan holds some of the world’s largest natural gas reserves, and energy, construction, textiles and trade drive demand for accurate Turkmen documentation, contracts and marketing. Like other Turkic languages, Turkmen is agglutinative: one root can carry many suffixes, so translators need both precision and a native ear.
Which script should Turkmen content use?
Turkmenistan uses the Latin alphabet officially, but older documents and some audiences use other scripts.
| Where it is used | Best for | |
|---|---|---|
| Latin alphabet | Official script of Turkmenistan since the 1990s | Government, business, education and digital content |
| Cyrillic | Older documents and records from the Soviet period | Archives and legacy documents |
| Arabic-based script | Turkmen communities in Iran and Afghanistan | Community and humanitarian content for those regions |
