Russian Translation Considerations
When translating Russian documents, our translators pay attention to several language-specific factors:
Russian documents use patronymics as a standard part of the full legal name (first name, patronymic, surname); all three must be accurately transliterated.
Soviet-era documents may use older formatting and terminology; ensure familiarity with both Soviet and modern Russian Federation document standards.
Russian dates may appear in day.month.year format with Roman numerals for months; ensure correct date conversion and formatting.
Russian uses the Cyrillic alphabet with 33 letters in Unicode block U+0400-U+04FF. Use fonts such as Noto Sans or Times New Roman that include Cyrillic. Be aware of visually similar Latin and Cyrillic letters (e.g., Cyrillic a, e, o, p, c, x) that can cause issues in mixed-script text. The letters \xd1\x91 (yo) and \xd0\xb5 (ye) are distinct but \xd1\x91 is often written as \xd0\xb5 in informal text.
