The new Russian and Bulgarian romanization tables have been approved
and the big difference to notice is that we now keep the hard signs at the ends of words.
Bulgarian revision
- The hard sign is
no longer disregarded in romanization when found at the end of a
word, where it can appear in the old orthography. Reversibility
is promoted and access is not affected.
- The soft sign is
no longer disregarded in romanization. Reversibility is promoted
and access is not affected.
- The note on
obsolete letters is clarified.
Russian revision
- The hard sign is
no longer disregarded in romanization when found at the end of a
word, where it can appear in the old orthography. Reversibility
is promoted and access is not affected.
- The instruction
“Do not confuse with similar part of the letter
 (romanized Y, y)” is
eliminated.
- The instructions
on obsolete letters are simplified. The letter
 is eliminated in favor
of a general reference to the Church Slavic table.
