SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR PROVIDING TRANSLITERATION BY LEVERAGING ARPABET PHONEMES

The present subject matter discloses a system and a method for providing transliteration between plurality of languages by leveraging Arpabet phonemes. For transliterating, highly phonetic scripts like Devanagiri and other Indic language scripts may be used as an intermediate representation for the languages. Further, a map may be generated between the intermediate representation and plurality of languages to be transliterated. With the maps generated, an arpabet characters may be replaced with a mapped grapheme. Based on the map, transliterating scheme is created for each of the plurality of languages. After creation of the transliterating schemes, merging criteria may be created which are further useful for creating meaningful grapheme phonemes. Thus, after creating the map and the merging criteria, the system may transliterate characters between several languages pair of the number of languages using the transliteration schemes associated with the languages.
