    TIL. In my native language the ий in Тарковский (still?) becomes an i.

    Honestly, I wonder if they don’t just do it randomly. I volunteered with Ukrainians. I met brothers who had the same family name in cyrillic, but two different names in roman/latin script. They were in the same group, but didn’t follow each other in an alphabetic list of surnames. Wasn’t a y/i either. Think it was something at the beginning of the surname.

    IRC the Soviets used to use the French method of romanisation (for passports). So the ий became an i. I think at a certain point they started using an english system, in which the ий becomes a y.

    But if you google romanization of Russian and the Russian alphabet, you’ll still see that й can become an i, y, or even a j.
