Transliteration

Deterministic ALA-LC mapping, not pronunciation or translation.

POST /v1/transliterate requires the scheme ala-lc-2011.

{ "text": "မြန်မာ", "scheme": "ala-lc-2011" }

The output is mranʻmā, using profile ala-lc-2011-mapping-v1. This is an orthographic mapping, not an English spelling or a pronunciation guide. It preserves spacing and does not infer cataloging word divisions or contextual capitalization. Other schemes and reverse transliteration are not implemented.

Segments are transliterated, preserved, or unsupported. Unsupported spans are retained and make complete false. Segment offsets refer to the original input, not the Latin output. Explicitly convert known Zawgyi input first.
