Explanation
Orfografiya teaches the correct writing of words. Main rules: 1) a capital letter is used at the sentence start and in proper nouns; 2) compound words are written together, separately or with a hyphen; 3) words are divided by syllable, and one letter is not left on a line; 4) the spelling rules for stems and suffixes are followed (taroq, yaprog‘i, ketdi); 5) the apostrophe (’) is written in words like e’lon, ma’no. Check doubtful words in the spelling dictionary.
Worked examples
