Georgian Mkhedruli to International Phonetic Alphabet Transliteration

A JavaScript function that transliterate strings from Mkhedruli Georgian to IPA.

This project is build using the translitit-engine, and its unit tests and transliteration tables are based on translitit-cyrillic-russian-to-latin.

Installation and Usage

Add it to your project by typing the following in your project root.

npm install translitit-mkhedruli-georgian-to-latin --save
OR
bower install translitit-mkhedruli-georgian-to-latin --save

Now, you can include the transliteration service in your project by including it:

var translit = require('translitit-mkhedruli-georgian-to-latin');

translit will now be a function, that will transliterate its input.

translit('იგივე'); // returns 'igive'

This matches the Transliteration from Google where the unmarked consonants (ejective) have no ’ and the marked ones have ’ (non-ejectives). Which is not the same as the national transcription where ejectives have ’ and non-ejectives have nothing. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Georgian_language#Writing_system http://ge.translit.cc
