The Uighur Vowels Unlike Arabic, Persian, Pashto or Urdu, every single vowel in Uighur is unambiguously written.I In Uighur, the independent forms of letters representing the vowels are conjuncts of three elements: yaa + hamza + vowel. The vowels at the beginning of a word must always take the conjunct form, but elsewhere, only the vowel element of the conjunct is written, and the standard Arabic rules of ligatures are followed.
