Cyrillization
A Cyrillization is a system for rendering words of a language that normally uses a writing system other than the Cyrillic script into a the Cyrillic alphabet. A Cyrillization scheme needs to be applied, for example, to transcribe names of German, Chinese, or American people and places for use in Russian, Ukrainian, Serbian, Macedonian or Bulgarian newspapers and books. Cyrillization is analogous to romanization, when words from a non-Latin-script-using language are rendered in the Latin alphabet for use e.g. in English, German, or Francophone literature. Just like with various Romanization schemes, each Cyrillization system has its own set of rules, depending on: ⁕The source language or writing system, ⁕The destination language or writing system, ⁕the goals of the systems: ⁕to render occasional foreign words for use in newspapers or on maps; ⁕to provide a practical approximate phonetic transcription in a phrase book or a bilingual dictionary; ⁕or to convert a language to a Cyrillic writing system altogether
