trans·lit·er·ate Pronunciation (trns-lt-rt, trnz-)
tr.v. trans·lit·er·at·ed, trans·lit·er·at·ing, trans·lit·er·ates
To represent (letters or words) in the corresponding characters of another alphabet.

So if the letters are written in Cyrillic you could either Translate them into English so you know the meaning or you could Transliterate them into Latin characters so you could learn the pronunciation.
