Morphology
transliteration = transliterate (transparent) = trans + literate + ion
Formed by adding the noun-forming suffix '-ion' to 'transliterate'; the meaning 'the process of transliterating' is directly derived.
Etymology
Transliteration comes from the parts trans- 'across' and littera 'letter'. So a transliteration is like 'moving letters across' alphabets: you write the letters of one script with the letters of another so people can read or say the words without changing their meaning.
