Abstract	The aim of this article is to present to the reader a sampling (860 items) from the Qazaq phonological terminology with their equivalents in Russian, English and Turkish. There has been many linguistic studies and publications in the Qazaq sound system both by Qazaq and foreign scholars in form of books, articles and glossaries. Qazaq is a member of the larger Turkic language family and therefore shares many similarities with other Turkic languages maintaining also some local elements. The terms in the Qazaq phonological corpus are mostly the creation of the vernacular. But some are also borrowings from Russian terms (derivatives of Latin and Greek origin) and the neighboring Turkic languages notably from Turkish. Literature on the Qazaq sound system both in local and other languages provide ample terminology sometimes with their equivalents in other major languages. Especially those published abroad, i.e., Russia, China, Turkey, etc., compare such items with equivalents in others. A new project titled "Multilingual Dictionary of Phonetics and Phonology" contains a corpus of the most common 10,000 phonological terms in English matching their counterparts in 26 languages among them is Qazaq. The data coming in for Qazaq are not only part of published literature and glossaries but also the result of dedicated efforts on the part of the scholars interested in the Project who meticulously search for the best equivalents and in some cases coin their own neologisms. Most of the Qazaq terminology presented in this paper appear the first time in literature as a bid to contribute to the ever-growing Qazaq phonological lexicography for the benefit of both Qazaq and foreign scholars studying the sound system of this language.
