View source for ISO 9

The [[international standard]] '''ISO 9''' establishes a system for the [[transliteration]] into [[Latin alphabet|Latin characters]] of [[Cyrillic alphabet|Cyrillic characters]] constituting the alphabets of many [[Slavic languages|Slavic]] and some non-Slavic languages {{fact|date=10 June, 2009}}.

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 cancels and replaces the edition of 1986.

== ISO 9:1995 ==
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).<!--the numbers from Table 3 are included in comments beneath, and when not included therein the number from Table 1 and 2 prefixed by an asterisk. The sort order is kept.--> Several Cyrillic characters included in ISO 9 are not available as precomposed characters in Unicode, neither are some of the transliterations; combining diacritical marks have to be used in these cases. Unicode, on the other hand, includes some historic characters that are not dealt with in ISO 9.<!--Some might be wrongly identified in the table below, but they should be marked with a question mark inside a comment.--> 

The following combined table shows characters for at least [[Abkhaz language|Abkhaz]], [[Altay language|Altay]], [[Belarusian language|Belarusian]], [[Bulgarian language|Bulgarian]], [[Buryat language|Buryat]], [[Chuvash language|Chuvash]], [[Karachay-Balkar language|Karachay-Balkar]], [[Macedonian language|Macedonian]], [[Moldavian language|Moldavian]], [[Mongolian language|Mongolian]], [[Russian language|Russian]], [[Rusyn language|Rusyn]], [[Serbian language|Serbian]], [[Udmurt language|Udmurt]], [[Ukrainian language|Ukrainian]], and all [[Languages of the Caucasus|Caucasian languages]] using [[Palochka|páločka]].<!--Are those the ones covered by GOST 7.79 (A)? ISO 9 includes a longer list with Table 3.-->

<!-- Decimal Unicode in title attributes still missing for recent additions. How about code points for ''all'' transliterations, how about codepoints for Cyrillic? -->

=== Example ===

Here is an example transliteration. The text in Cyrillic is an extract from the [[hymn of the Russian Federation]]:
{|cellpadding=0 cellspacing=0
|-style="vertical-align: top;"
|{{lang|ru|Славься, Отечество наше свободное,<br />Братских народов союз вековой,<br />Предками данная мудрость народная!<br />Славься, страна! Мы гордимся тобой!}}
|width=15|
|{{lang|ru-Latn|Slavʹsâ, Otečestvo naše svobodnoe,<br />Bratskih narodov soûz vekovoj,<br />Predkami dannaâ mudrostʹ narodnaâ!<br />Slavʹsâ, strana! My gordimsâ toboj!}}
|}

== GOST 7.79 ==

GOST 7.79 contains two transliteration tables.
; System A: one Cyrillic character to one Latin character, some with diacritics – identical to ISO 9:1995
; System B: one Cyrillic character to one or many Latin characters without diacritics
<!-- Can anyone confirm this is in the most recent GOST standard? It is definitely not in ISO 9:1995!-->

=== National adoptions ===
The verbatim translated text of the ISO 9 is adopted as an inter-state standard in the countries listed below (the national designation is shown in parentheses). However, in reality, these countries use their own transliteration systems, based on the phonetic rules of their languages.

== ISO/R 9:1968 ==

This is an older version of the standard, with different transliteration for different [[Slavic languages]], reflecting their [[phonemic]] differences. It is closer to the original international system of slavist [[scientific transliteration]].

The languages covered are Bulgarian, Russian, Belarusian, Ukrainian, Serbian and Macedonian. ISO 9:1995 is shown for comparison.

===Sub-standards===
ISO/R 9 - 1968 permits some deviations from the main standard. In the table below, they are listed in the columns ''sub-standard 1'' and ''sub-standard 2''<!-- lacking better names -->.
*The first sub-standard defines some language-dependent transliterations for Russian (ru), Ukrainian (uk), Belarusian (be) and Bulgarian (bg).
*The second sub-standard permits, in countries where tradition favours it, a set of alternative transliterations, but only as a group.
