Thomas Alphabets Cyrillic Alphabet Modern Languages Russian Slavic Languages Translation Written Language Authors and editors faced with the problem of rendering Russian names or words into English are forced to transliterate the Cyrillic alphabet according to the needs of their readers.

System 1 is suggested for handling personal names and place names in works aimed at the general public. System 2, the Library of Congress system for modern Russian (without diacritical marks), is suggested for works directed primarily at specialists in the social and natural sciences. System 3 is intended for linguists and literary scholars. System 4, the Library of Congress system with diacritical marks, is recommended for certain types of bibliographical publications demanding rigorous precision. (Author/RL) |
