Help[Opinions] Re: Best for Jewish soviet actress born I Ukriane
in reply to a message by (Is-rah-el) Israelle
Hmmm...
Just to weigh in, Oktybrina and Oktibryna aren't the same as Oktyabrina (and you shift spellings so it's a bit confusing which one you mean). In terms of transliteration (into English, which, yes is different to Hebrew, but you ARE asking people on an English language forum!) I can't think of any standard way in which you could turn я into 'y' or 'i' when you're transliterating into Latin alphabet. 'Ya' is a different letter/sound. It also changes the name, which literally comes from the word oktYAbr' not oktIbr'. Just facts.
