Coptic Romanization Table (2014)
alalc-cop-Copt-Latn-2014 ALA-LC Coptic Romanization Table, 2014 version (no earlier versions). Covers the Coptic alphabet (Greek-derived and Demotic letters), the Old Coptic letters with their diacritic romanizations (diaeresis forms Ï Ü Ẍ, the K-diaeresis-below and dialect-p ni and crossed shei letters, the dialect-p alef to a modifier-letter apostrophe), the Old Nubian letters (ŋ ɲ w), the letter-numeral table (macron above for units, overline for thousands), and the note rules: the single prime inserted between two letters that could be misread as a digraph, and the ignoring of diacritics per the practice of the Journal of Coptic Studies except the iaude (ⲓ) and ua (ⲩ) diaereses.
