Cyrillic Transcription Guide

To make it easier to search the Russian texts in the native cyrillic, the search box accepts most transliterated text using the LC and INSPEC schemes. Since these schemes tend to emphasize sound rather than spelling, some additional elements are necessary to support lexical searching.

If you want your text converted, surround it with a forward slash ( / ).
If you need a forward slash, place two together (//).
Use capital letters to obtain capital cyrillic letters.
Except for the punctuation shown below, all the rest appear as entered.

For example:
(/kniga/ or /zhurnal/) and /Filosofi*/ becomes (книга or журнал) and Философи*
