Russian Latin alphabet

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Russian Latin alphabet (also known as Latinka (in itself), informal for the Latin alphabet in general) — the common name of the several historically existing systems of rendering the Russian (Cyrillic) text in Latin script. It is used, occasionally, in its current form, by certain authors, groups and promoters, and some of the Russian diaspora press on the Internet.

It is not, as such, the Romanisation system, as it imposes knowing certain accompanying orthographical conventions.
