a = a, b = b, v = v, g = g, e = e, e(io) = e, zh = zhm z = z, i = i, i
(kratkii) = i or j, k = k l = l, m = m, n = n, o = o, p = p, r = r, s = s, t
= t, u = u, f = f, x = x or kh, ts = ts or c, ch = ch, hard sign = ", y = y,
sof sign = ', e = e, iu = iu or ju, ia = ia or ja. Piece of cake. Use
Library of Congress system without signs. Don't use outmoded "French
Russian" (e.g. final v = ff, zh = j, etc.

What is the proper transliteration into "English" alphabet of the Russian
word for "hello", i.e., "Priviet"?

Never learned transliteration yet.
