Template:ru-xlit/documentation

This template is used to automatically generate a transliteration of Russian text. It should only be used as part of templates, not directly in entries.

This template is similar to but provides additional support for certain idiosyncrasies in Russian transliteration:
 * Russian adjectival -го endings are transliterated as -vo (exceptions are made for много, etc.).
 * The word что (possibly accented) is transliterated što (and similarly for ничто, чтобы, чтоб).

Parameters

 * The text to transliterate, which should be written in the given language.
 * The text to transliterate, which should be written in the given language.


 * If specified, don't transliterate Russian adjectival -го endings as -vo.
 * If specified, don't transliterate Russian adjectival -го endings as -vo.


 * If specified, don't transliterate что as što.
 * If specified, don't transliterate что as što.


 * If specified, should be one or more substitution expressions separated by commas, where each substitution expression is of the form FROM/TO, where FROM is a Lua pattern and TO is the corresponding replacement expression (see WT:LUA). The substitutions are applied in order and before transliteration; hence both FROM and TO should be Cyrillic expressions.
