Hi Anjali Rao

Thanks for reaching out to us on Microsoft Q&A forum.

Azure AI Translator has a feature called "Transliterate" that helps convert text from one writing system to another. For example, if you have Russian text written in Cyrillic characters and you want to convert it to Latin characters, you can use this feature. It's like when you want to write Russian words using English letters so that English speakers can understand them better. So, when you use the Transliterate function, it automatically changes the Russian word "спасибо" to "spasibo" in Latin characters. This feature is part of "Azure Cognitive Services Translator API", which is a set of tools for translating and working with different languages.

I hope you understand!
