Frequently Asked Questions

Cyrillic ↔ Cyrillic translation between closely-related Slavic languages (Russian ↔ Ukrainian ↔ Belarusian, or among South Slavic Cyrillic) often hits 95%+ accuracy because shared roots and grammatical structure carry through directly. Russian to Ukrainian is one of the strongest pair shapes in modern neural MT.

Most Slavic-language Cyrillic pairs are partially mutually intelligible, but a high-quality translation still needs neural MT for idiom, register, and grammatical mismatch. Russian to Ukrainian handles the false-friends (e.g. Russian "год" vs Ukrainian "рік") that defeat naive substitution.

Cyrillic alphabets aren't identical: Russian uses ы/э/ъ; Ukrainian adds ї/є/ґ; Belarusian adds ў; Serbian Cyrillic adds ј/љ/њ/ћ/џ; Bulgarian / Macedonian have their own subsets. The model emits exactly the alphabet of the target.

Personal names follow the target language's spelling conventions for Slavic names (e.g. Russian Александр → Ukrainian Олександр when translating Russian → Ukrainian; Russian → Belarusian similarly maps Александр → Аляксандр). Non-Slavic names pass through phonetically.

Slavic languages share rich case marking (six or seven cases) and verb aspect (perfective / imperfective). The model handles these consistently across the pair, including correct case agreement on nouns, adjectives, and participles in the target.

The ты / вы (informal / formal) distinction exists across Russian, Ukrainian, and Belarusian. The model defaults to вы (formal) and respects the register if the source had explicit informal markers (kinship terms, intimate pronouns).

Output uses the standard literary form of the target. Substandard or dialect-marked source content (Surzhyk, Trasianka, regional Bulgarian) is normalized to the standard before translation.

Latin acronyms (USB, NATO, PDF), brand names, URLs, and email addresses pass through unchanged. This is the convention used by professional Russian, Ukrainian, Serbian, and Bulgarian publishers.

Yes — language-specific Cyrillic letters round-trip correctly. The ё/е disambiguation is handled (Russian → Ukrainian maps Russian ё → ьо in stressed position, etc.).

OCS in the source is normalized to modern paraphrase first, then translated to the modern form of Ukrainian. Bracketed OCS quotations stay verbatim.

Yes — South Slavic Cyrillic has different grammatical features (Bulgarian has lost the case system; Macedonian uses postpositive articles; Serbian shares grammar with Croatian / Bosnian / Montenegrin). The model knows the family structure and translates accordingly.

10,000 characters per web request, 50,000 per API call. Slavic-script pair throughput is high because of shared subword tokenizer coverage.
