"Contextual capitalization" applies to the transliteration of a single letter in the original script to a digram in the target script:
- The second letter of the digram is normally lowercase when capitalizing words, except if it is followed by another uppercase letter in the same word (for example in words fully capitalized in the original script, both letters of the digram in the other script should be capitalized). This means that the existing capitalization of the letter immediately following the letter to transliterate should be inspected to determine how to capitalize the digram. These cases appear between parentheses as an alternative to the usual transliteration, which capitalizes only the first letter of the transliterated digram.
- This contextual ambiguity normally does not apply when transliterating a digram (independantly of the existing capitalization of its second letter) to a single letter in the target script, using the capitalization of the first letter in the original digram.
Note: a different Latin alphabet is also used by Nogais in Romania; it adds the letter ‹ q / Q › (commonly used in Romance language, including Romanian, but also for loan words borrowed from Arabic or Persian), two letters ‹ Ğ / ğ › and ‹ Ĭ / ĭ › with a breve above, and frequently replaces the attached "s/S with cedilla; ş/Ş" diacritic by a detached "s/S with comma below; ș/Ș" (commonly used in Romanian) :
| a / A | b / B | c / C | ç / Ç | d / D | e / E | f / F | g / G | ğ / Ğ | h / H | ı / I | i / İ | ĭ / Ĭ | j / J | k / K | l / L | |
| m / M | n / N | ñ / Ñ | o / O | ö / Ö | p / P | q / Q | r / R | s / S | ş / ޹ | t / T | u / U | ü / Ü | v / V | w / W | y / Y | z / Z |
