I hope someone has a good suggestion for Serbian, cyrillic and alphabetic. There are more language that are written in different charactersets. I am looking forward to suggestions.
The solution used so far is to link both the word in Cyrillic and its Latin transliteration. This is done with Belarusian (Cyrillic and Lacinka), and presumably for other languages that have had different official scripts in the past. I don't know how extensible such a solution would be for languages like Azeri which have changed scripts many times (it has had Arabic, Cyrillic, and two different Latin orthographies _officially_ over the past hundred years).
