Module:az-translit

This module will transliterate Azerbaijani language text. The module should preferably not be called directly from templates or other modules. To use it from a template, use {{xlit}}. Within a module, use Module:languages#Language:transliterate.

For testcases, see Module:az-translit/testcases.

Functions edit
