  • it isn’t translated - it’s just English in the Cyrillic alphabet.

    I must be misunderstanding you. I transliterated it to Latin script based on visual similarity but it still doesn’t seem to make any coherent sentence.

    Could you please explain?

      Cyrillic isn’t just scrambled Latin script, the letters have different sounds.

      Visual similarity can cause a lot of issues with learning the alphabet, because some are what they look like (т, о, е, м, б, к, [х, but pronounced weird]), but others aren’t (с = s, р = R, я = ya, н = N, и = ee, з = z, г = g)…

        No, I knew that. I genuinely thought they were saying to transliterate it according to visual similarities. Lol.

        That’s actually very fascinating…

      you should translate the characters based on their sound, not visual similarity.
