Cyrillic.Convert

NuGet CI License: MIT

Lightweight C# library for transliteration (Cyrillic ⇆ Latin).

Features

  • Convert by calling Conversion methods directly (e.g. SerbianLatinToCyrillic).
  • Convert via string extension methods (e.g. "Ћирилица".ToSerbianLatin()).
  • Language-specific rules: start-of-word variants, digraphs, special letters.
  • Targets netstandard2.0 and net8.0 — works everywhere from .NET Framework 4.6.1 to .NET 8+.

Supported languages

Language Cyrillic → Latin Latin → Cyrillic
Serbian ToSerbianLatin() ToSerbianCyrillic()
Russian ToRussianLatin() ToRussianCyrillic()
Bulgarian ToBulgarianLatin() ToBulgarianCyrillic()
Ukrainian ToUkrainianLatin() ToUkrainianCyrillic()
Georgian ToGeorgianLatin() ToGeorgianCyrillic()
Greek ToGreekLatin() ToGreekCyrillic()
Belarusian ToBelarusianLatin() ToBelarusianCyrillic()
Macedonian ToMacedonianLatin() ToMacedonianCyrillic()
Armenian ToArmenianLatin() ToArmenianCyrillic()
Kazakh ToKazakhLatin() ToKazakhCyrillic()

Example

var conversion = new Conversion();

// Serbian
string latin    = "a,b,v,g,d,đ,e,ž,z,i,j,k,l,m,n,o,p,r,s,t,ć,u,f,h,c,č,š,Lj,Nj,Dž,lj,nj,dž";
string cyrillic = latin.ToSerbianCyrillic();               // extension method
string cyrillic2 = conversion.SerbianLatinToCyrillic(latin); // direct API
string latinBack = conversion.SerbianCyrillicToLatin(cyrillic2);
string latinBack2 = cyrillic2.ToSerbianLatin();

// Other languages follow the same pattern:
string ruLatin  = "Привет мир".ToRussianLatin();
string grLatin  = "Αθήνα".ToGreekLatin();
string kazLatin = "Қазақстан".ToKazakhLatin();

Installation

Install-Package Cyrillic.Convert

Or with the .NET CLI:

dotnet add package Cyrillic.Convert

Notes

  • Some mappings are lossy by design (e.g. hard/soft signs dropped in Kazakh).
  • Mixed-case multi-letter Latin tokens are handled (e.g. Nj, Lj, Shch).
  • All public API methods accept and return string?null input returns null.

Migration from v3.x

Six extension methods had a spelling typo (Cyrilic instead of Cyrillic). They are now [Obsolete] and will be removed in v5.0. Rename them in your code:

// v3.x (deprecated)
text.ToSerbianCyrilic()
text.ToRussianCyrilic()
text.ToBulgarianCyrilic()
text.ToGeorgianCyrilic()
text.ToGreekCyrilic()
text.ToArmenianCyrilic()

// v4.x (correct)
text.ToSerbianCyrillic()
text.ToRussianCyrillic()
text.ToBulgarianCyrillic()
text.ToGeorgianCyrillic()
text.ToGreekCyrillic()
text.ToArmenianCyrillic()

v4.0.0
BREAKING CHANGES:
- ConversionDictionaries and all concrete language classes are now internal.
- ToSerbianCyrilic / ToRussianCyrilic / ToBulgarianCyrilic / ToGeorgianCyrilic / ToGreekCyrilic / ToArmenianCyrilic are now [Obsolete]. Use the correctly-spelled ToCyrillic() variants instead.

New features / fixes:
- Fixed Kazakh.cs encoding corruption — Kazakh transliteration now works correctly.
- Replaced the fragile Belarusian СЬ placeholder hack with safe Unicode PUA sentinels.
- GetConcreteProduct now throws ArgumentOutOfRangeException for unknown Language values instead of returning silently.
- Nullable reference types enabled; all public API now annotated with string?.
- Shared static Conversion instance in Extensions — no per-call dictionary allocation.
- Added GitHub Actions CI and automated NuGet publish pipelines.
- Fixed snake_case naming (is_empty → IsWordBoundary, empty_chars → WordBoundaryChars, etc.).
