<nowiki>**</nowiki>Normally, when romanizing Knašta Cyrillic, you would use Knašta Latin. However, If the target audience is not one that speaks Knašta, it is better to use the Non-Knaštic romanization.
 
Unlike in Russian, it is important to differentiate between **е** and **ё**. **Е** can never be replaced with **ё**.
 
===== Ť and Ď =====
 
The letters **ť** and **ď** have no counterparts in Knašta Cyrillic. Instead, they are represented by a combination of **т** for **ť** or **д** for **ď** and a iotified letter (for example the word **pysťo** (country) in Knašta Latin is **пѵстё** in Knašta Cyrillic).
