The following table describes the simplified BGN/PCGN romanization system for Ukrainian. See Misplaced Pages:romanization of Ukrainian for editorial guidelines, romanization of Ukrainian for more about the system.
For running text, the soft sign (ь) and apostrophe ( ’ ) may be omitted. The endings -ий = -yy and -ій = -iy may be simplified to -y.
For detailed representation of Ukrainian spelling, use ь = ’, and Ukrainian apostrophe = ”. Midpoints may be used to differentiate the character sequences зг = z·h, кг = k·h, сг = s·h, тс = t·s, and цг = ts·h, so they are not confused for the digraphs ж = zh, х = kh, ш = sh, ц = ts, and the letter sequence тш = tsh.
Historical text may also require ё = ë or yë, ъ = ”, ы = y, ѣ = ě, э = e.
