The rule

Name spelled wrong in Cyrillic

Spelling rules connect a word’s sound, structure and conventional written form. The correction preserves the form readers expect to recognize.

Sound
Do not rely on hearing alone Several letters or spellings can represent the same sound, and some letters are not pronounced clearly.
Structure
Look for the word family Prefixes, suffixes and related words often reveal letters that speech hides.
Convention
Learn the complete pattern Spacing, hyphens, accents and capitals are part of a word’s spelling, not decoration.
