This article aims to equip you with essential vocabulary and phrases that will help you navigate through the process of organizing or participating in events in a Kazakh-speaking environment.

Getting Started with Basics

Before diving into the specific terms related to event planning, let’s start with some basics. In Kazakh, the word for “event” is ัˆะฐั€ะฐ (shara), and “party” is often referred to as ะบะตาฃะตั (kenes) or ั‚ะพะน (toy) which specifically means a celebration or a feast. Here are a few phrases that might come in handy:

ะ‘ั–ะท ัˆะฐั€ะฐ าฑะนั‹ะผะดะฐัั‚ั‹ั€ะฐะผั‹ะท (Biz shara uฤฑymdastyramyz) – We are organizing an event.
ะกะตะฝ ะบะตะปะตัั–าฃ ะฑะต? (Sen kelesiล„ be?) – Will you come?

Invitations and Guests

Invitations are a crucial part of event planning. Whether it’s a formal invitation or a casual invite to friends, knowing how to ask people to join your event is important. The word for “invitation” in Kazakh is ัˆะฐา›ั‹ั€ัƒ (shaqyru). You might want to say:

ะœะตะฝ ัะตะฝั– ัˆะฐา›ั‹ั€ะฐะผั‹ะฝ (Men seni shaqyramyn) – I invite you.
ะ‘าฑะป ัะฐา“ะฐะฝ ั€ะตัะผะธ ัˆะฐา›ั‹ั€ัƒ (Bul sagaล„ resmi shaqyru) – This is a formal invitation to you.

Discussing the guest list is often next. The phrase for “guest list” is า›ะพะฝะฐา›ั‚ะฐั€ ั‚ั–ะทั–ะผั– (qonaqtar tizimi).

าšะพะฝะฐา›ั‚ะฐั€ ั‚ั–ะทั–ะผั–ะฝ ะถะฐัะฐะนั‹า› (Qonaqtar tizimin jasaiyq) – Let’s make a guest list.
าšะฐะฝัˆะฐ ะฐะดะฐะผ ะบะตะปะตะดั–? (Qansha adam keledi?) – How many people are coming?

Planning the Venue and Date

Choosing the right venue is key to any event. In Kazakh, “venue” is referred to as ะพั€ั‹ะฝ (oryn). You may need to discuss options and availability:

ะ‘ั–ะทะณะต าฏะปะบะตะฝ ะพั€ั‹ะฝ ะบะตั€ะตะบ (Bizge ulken oryn kerek) – We need a large venue.
ะžั€ั‹ะฝะดั‹ ะฑั€ะพะฝะดะฐัƒ ะบะตั€ะตะบ ะฟะต? (Oryndy brondau kerek pe?) – Do we need to book the venue?

Setting the date and time is equally important. “Date” in Kazakh is ะบาฏะฝั– (kuni) and “time” is ัƒะฐา›ั‹ั‚ (uaqyt).

ะจะฐั€ะฐะฝั‹าฃ ะบาฏะฝั–ะฝ ะฑะตะปะณั–ะปะตะนั–ะบ (Sharanyn kunin belgileyik) – Let’s set the date of the event.
ะฃะฐา›ั‹ั‚ั‚ั‹ ัˆะตัˆัƒ ะบะตั€ะตะบ (Uaqytty sheshu kerek) – We need to decide the time.

Food and Entertainment

No event is complete without food and entertainment. In Kazakh, “food” is ั‚ะฐา“ะฐะผ (tagam), and “entertainment” is ะพะนั‹ะฝ-ัะฐัƒั‹า› (oyฤฑn-sauyq).

ะขะฐา“ะฐะผ ั‚ั–ะทั–ะผั–ะฝ ะถะฐัะฐะนั‹า› (Tagam tizimin jasaiyq) – Let’s make a food menu.
ะžะนั‹ะฝ-ัะฐัƒั‹า› าฑะนั‹ะผะดะฐัั‚ั‹ั€ัƒ ะบะตั€ะตะบ (Oyฤฑn-sauyq uฤฑymdastyru kerek) – We need to organize entertainment.

Decorations and Setup

Decorations can transform a venue and set the mood for your event. In Kazakh, “decorations” are ะฑะตะทะตะฝะดั–ั€ัƒะปะตั€ (bezendiruler).

ะ‘ะตะทะตะฝะดั–ั€ัƒะปะตั€ะดั– ะบั–ะผ ะถะฐัะฐะนะดั‹? (Bezendirulerdi kim jasaidy?) – Who will do the decorations?
ะ‘ั–ะทะณะต ะณาฏะปะดะตั€ ะผะตะฝ ัˆะฐะผะดะฐั€ ะบะตั€ะตะบ (Bizge guldะตั€ men shamdar kerek) – We need flowers and candles.

Conclusion and Thanking Guests

After the event, it’s polite to thank your guests. In Kazakh, “thank you” is ั€ะฐา›ะผะตั‚ (raqmet).

ะšะตะปะณะตะฝั–าฃั–ะท าฏัˆั–ะฝ ั€ะฐา›ะผะตั‚ (Kelgeniล„iz ushin raqmet) – Thank you for coming.
ะ‘ั–ะทะดั–าฃ ัˆะฐั€ะฐา“ะฐ า›ะฐั‚ั‹ัา›ะฐะฝั‹าฃั‹ะท าฏัˆั–ะฝ ั€ะฐา›ะผะตั‚ (Bizdั–ล„ sharaga qatysqanyล„iz ushin raqmet) – Thank you for participating in our event.
