</span></font></a>MARC::Detrans is an eclectic addition to the already eclectic
MARC::Record distribution for de-transliterating MARC::Records. What is
detransliteration you ask? Well it's the opposite of transliteration, which
according to the Merriam-Webster: to represent or spell in the characters of
another alphabet. Traditionally when librarians catalog an item that has a
title in a non-Roman script they will follow transliteration rules for
converting the title into the Roman alphabet, so that the bibliographic record
could be filed into the card catalog or database index appropriately. These Romanization
Rules are published by the Library of Congress <a

OK ... first let's discuss what you're trying to do. I have had two<br>
years of Chinese language classes so I know that there are several<br>
ways to represent Chinese. Are you attempting to put 'pinyin' in the<br>
100a and then link to the actual characters in 880? What is your goal<br>
in using the 880?<br>
<br>
