Question

Is it posible to convert Cyrillic string to English(Latin) in c#?
For example I need to convert “Петролеум” in “Petroleum”.
Plus I forgot to mention that if I have Cyrillic string it need to stay like that, so can I somehow check that?

Answer 1

I’m not familiar with Cyrillic, but if it’s just a 1-to-1 mapping of Cyrillic characters to Latin characters that you’re after, you can use a dictionary of character pairs and map each character individually:

var map = new Dictionary<char, string>
{
    { 'П', "P" },
    { 'е', "e" },
    { 'т', "t" },
    { 'р', "r" },
    ...
}

var result = string.Concat("Петролеум".Select(c => map[c]));
