This study investigates how Uzbek vowels are described in Japaneselanguage textbooks and what types of explanations are most effective for Japanese learners.Six textbooks currently available in Japan were analyzed, focusing on the vowels and their accompanying descriptions.The analysis revealed that while /a/, /u/, and /e/ can be readily associated with their Japanese counterparts, the vowels /o/ and /oʻ/ frequently cause confusion, as Japanese learners are unfamiliar with the distinction between them.Similarly, /i/ often presents difficulties, as it may be realized as a schwa-like vowel or undergo devoicing, features absent in Japanese.Textbook explanations vary considerably, and in some cases provide insufficient information, which risks reinforcing misunderstandings.Based on a comparative analysis of both vowel systems, this paper proposes simplified pedagogical descriptions that align with learnersʼ expectations while avoiding confusion.These include presenting /o/ as a sound between a and o, and explaining /i/ as a vowel that may sometimes not be pronounced.By offering such learner-oriented explanations, it is possible to facilitate a smoother and more efficient acquisition of Uzbek vowels for beginningJapanese learners of Uzbek.
