Embodiments of the present invention relate to methods, systems and computer-readable media for transliteration between Cyrillic and Latin script in a software product. An embodiment of this transliteration system and method comprises loading a text of characters and words in one of a Cyrillic or Latin script into a character transliteration module. This module converts each character in the one of a Cyrillic or Latin script into a corresponding opposite transliterated Cyrillic or Latin character. Then each word is examined in a word capitalization and exception module that compares each transliterated word against a set of predetermined grammatical rules to determine whether there are exceptions in capitalization. If there are, then appropriate internal capitalization of characters is added. Each word of the text to be transliterated is sequentially examined and converted until all words have been examined.
