What is transliterate?
Transliterate is the action of passing a text from one alphabet to another, keeping the phonetic issues. Every transliteration must be capable to get back to original form, letter by letter, without any errors. I have seen many times people transliterating Russian in a wrong form, and there is a default way to transliterate, I will teach it: А A Б B В V Г G Д D Е YE Ё Ë Ж ZH З Z И I Й Ĭ or J К K Л L М M Н N О O П P Р R С S Т T У U Ф F Х H Ц TS Ч CH Ш SH Щ SHCH Ъ " Ы Y Ь ' Э E Ю YU Я YA Letters not present in Latin Alphabet are represented by two letters, just like Ж becomes ZH. Note that TS automatically turns into Ц, thus, if you want to write ТС, you have to separate the two letters with a middle point (·) or with a dash (-). So, the transliteration of Ростов находится на дону becomes "Rostov nahodit·sya na donu", 'cause the text "Rostov nahoditsya na donu" becomes Ростов находиця на дону as well as "Oni tantsyevali na l'du" becomes Они танцевали на льду. So, pay attention to the digraphs. Edited by Venustus on 02 October 2011 at 11:03pm 1 person has voted this message useful | |

Well no, there are many ways.
Romanization of Russian (wiki) Of course it's always better to use the Cyrillic alphabet whenever possible. Translit.ru allows you to not only instantly convert Latin letters into Cyrillic, but also to check spelling (the орф button). 1 person has voted this message useful |
