ISO 9

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

ISO 9is aninternational standardestablishing a system for thetransliterationintoLatin charactersofCyrillic charactersconstituting the Alpha bets of manySlavicand non-Slavic languages.[1]

Published on February 23, 1995 by theInternational Organization for Standardization,[2]the major advantage ISO 9 has over other competing systems is its univocal system of one character for one character equivalents (by the use of diacritics), which faithfully represents the original spelling and allows for reverse transliteration, even if the language is unknown.

Earlier versions of the standard, ISO/R 9:1954, ISO/R 9:1968 and ISO 9:1986, were more closely based on the international scholarly system for linguistics (scientific transliteration), but have diverged in favour of unambiguous transliteration over phonemic representation. The edition of 1995 supersedes the edition of 1986.[1]

ISO 9:1995

[edit]

The standard features three mapping tables: the first covers contemporary Slavic languages, the second older Slavic orthographies (excluding letters from the first), and the third non-Slavic languages (including most letters from the first). Several Cyrillic characters included in ISO 9 are not available as pre-composed characters inUnicode,nor are some of the transliterations;combining diacritical markshave to be used in these cases. Unicode, on the other hand, includes some historic characters that are not dealt with in ISO 9.

Transliteration table

[edit]

The following combined table shows characters for variousSlavic,Iranian,Romance,Turkic,Uralic,Mongolic,Caucasian,Tungusic,Paleosiberianand other languages of the former USSR which are written in Cyrillic.

Sample text

[edit]

The following text is a fragment of the Preamble of theUniversal Declaration of Human RightsinBulgarian:[15]

Като взе предвид, че признаването на достойнството, присъщо на всички членове на човешкия род,
на техните равни и неотменими права представлява основа на свободата, справедливостта и мира в света,
Kato vze predvid, če priznavaneto na dostojnstvoto, prisʺŝo na vsički členove na čoveškiâ rod,
na tehnite ravni i neotmenimi prava predstavlâva osnova na svobodata, spravedlivostta i mira v sveta,

ISO/R 9

[edit]

ISO Recommendation No. 9, published 1954 and revised 1968, is an older version of the standard, with different transliteration for differentSlavic languages,reflecting theirphonemicdifferences. It is closer to the original international system of Slavistscientific transliteration.

A German adaptation of this standard was published by theDeutsches Institut für Normungas DIN 1460 (1982) for Slavic languages and supplemented by DIN 1460-2 (2010) for non-Slavic languages.

The languages covered are Russian (RU), Belarusian (BE), Ukrainian (UK), Bulgarian (BG), Serbo-Croatian (SH) and Macedonian (MK). For comparison, ISO 9:1995 is shown in the table below.

Alternative schemes:ISO/R 9:1968 permits some deviations from the main standard. In the table below, they are listed in the columnsalternative 1andalternative2.

  1. The first sub-standard defines some language-dependent transliterations for Russian (RU), Ukrainian (UK), Belarusian (BE) and Bulgarian (BG).
  2. The second sub-standard permits, in countries where tradition favours it, a set of alternative transliterations, but only as a group. It is identical to theBritish Standard2979:1958 for Cyrillic romanization.[16]
