Transliterate Cyrillic → Latin in every possible way
Project description
Iuliia
Transliterate Cyrillic → Latin in every possible way
Transliteration means representing Cyrillic data (mainly names and geographic locations) with Latin letters. It is used for international passports, visas, green cards, driving licenses, mail and goods delivery etc.
Iuliia
makes transliteration as easy as:
>>> import iuliia
>>> iuliia.translate("Юлия Щеглова", schema=iuliia.WIKIPEDIA)
'Yuliya Shcheglova'
Why use Iuliia
- 19 transliteration schemas (rule sets), including all main international and Russian standards.
- Correctly implements not only the base mapping, but all the special rules for letter combinations and word endings (AFAIK, Iuliia is the only library which does so).
- Simple API and zero third-party dependencies.
Supports actual schemas:
- ALA-LC (coming soon)
- BGN/PCGN (coming soon)
- BS 2979:1958 (coming soon)
- GOST R 52290-2004 (coming soon)
- GOST R 7.0.34-2014 (coming soon)
- ICAO DOC 9303 (coming soon)
- ISO 9:1995 (aka GOST 7.79-2000, coming soon)
- UNGEGN 1987 V/18 (coming soon)
- Scientific (coming soon)
- Telegram (coming soon)
- Wikipedia (
iuliia.WIKIPEDIA
) - Yandex.Maps (
iuliia.YANDEX_MAPS
) - Yandex.Money (
iuliia.YANDEX_MONEY
)
And deprecated ones (coming soon):
- GOST 16876-71
- GOST R 52535.1-2006
- ISO/R 9:1954
- ISO/R 9:1968
