trans

The trans Python module is designed to provide users with a quick and efficient way to translate national characters into similar sounding Latin characters, also known as transliteration. Currently, the module supports the alphabets of several languages, including Greek, Turkish, Russian, Ukrainian, Czech, Polish, and Latvian, which cover approximately 99% of most user requirements.

Users can easily integrate the trans module into their Python programs using the import function. The module supports Unicode strings, which ensures that users can receive reliable and accurate output. The program results are shown through console print statements with different encoding options.

However, the module does have some limitations. Users who attempt to input characters or strings that are not supported may receive an error message. Fortunately, users can create their own tables of translation with custom characters for specific languages that the trans module currently lacks.

Overall, the trans module offers an excellent solution for anyone who needs to transliterate a variety of national characters into more familiar Latin characters, quickly and easily.
