I am trying to write a transliterator for converting roman into another language. It is much easier to write using roman/keyboard but the output will show in the appropriate language font. For example: dny = character #225; kh = character #35; k = character #12; h = character #10; a = character #8; kha = character #35#8 and not #12#10#8; what pattern should I write to split a string in those characters? for example khatos should split into kh, a, t,o,s So triplecharacter pattern should match first and then double character then single. It is guranteed that there will be always some vovels in between but they can be multcharcter always. for example word mukharjee should split into m,u, kh,a, rj,ee or is it possible get first character that are not vovels, then get vowels then chracters again? once I split it, all I need to do is to find associated charcter from assoc array and print. Thanks for your help
