Romanization of Adyghe (2012)
bgnpcgn-ady-Cyrl-Latn-2012 The BGN/PCGN system for Adyghe is designed for use in romanizing names written in the Adyghe Cyrillic alphabet. Adyghe, a language of the north-western Caucasian family, is principally spoken in Russia's republic of Adygeya and has been written in a modified Cyrillic script since 1938. Also known as West Circassian, Adyghe is notable for its rich density of consonant phonemes and corresponding paucity of vowels. Adyghe letters are addressed in the romanizations as per their articulation: glottalised consonants are marked with an apostrophe, labialized consonants with w, and retroflex consonants with an underbar. Phonemes shared with Kabardian are represented as per the BGN/PCGN Kabardian Romanization System.
