Transliteration

Entertainment / Literature / Transliteration: The representation of the symbols appearing in one language's writing system by those of another language's writing system. For instance, Anglo-Saxon had a letter called eth (???†?€?), which does not exist in Modern English. To transliterate this letter, we use the digraph when we write out Anglo-Saxon words. For instance, ???†?€?aes might become thaes. For extended examples of transliteration in Mandarin Chinese, click here.
