You forgot the link... it's http://linguarium.iling-ran.ru/publications/caucas/table.pdf. But _spasibo_, that's giving me something to look over this rainy morning. I'm only familiar with the new Latin alphabet for Chechen (which I dislike, since ejective stops are marked with -h: ph = /p>/, th = /t>/ etc.) Also, the link you gave is *almost* right... try: http://linguarium.iling-ran.ru/publications/caucas/alw_cau_over.html. (It's not .shtml; just .html.) There's one more source for transliteration of non-Roman scripts, including some Caucasian languages (now including Georgian), along with MANY Cyrillic-alphabet languages, including all those Turkic languages. http://ee.www.ee/transliteration/
