A mixed up languages of Latin transript translated names of cities is bugged

Your feedback and suggestions

Hello,

If the original name of a city is in other script than Latin, then Ventusky shows it`s Latin transcript below the original name. For example from an Azbuka script to a Latin script in Eastern Europe.

Have a look at the attached screenshot showing Belarus. The Latin transcript names of the cities are instead of just always using an English transript, being translated using a mix of different languages, Polish, Ukrainian, Romanian and I think even Czech or Slovak language. You can tell by the special characters each of the particular languages is using...It is a complete mess...

We'll look into it, thank you. Are you experiencing the same problem in other countries as well?

I think it's correct. For example: A 1:1 Latin transliteration of the Belarusian "Баранавічы" is "Baranavičy.". For some cities, the English name is used instead of the transliteration. However, this is not the case for all cities. The name in parentheses is the internationally recognized name of the city.
