Transliteration

Hi to All!

 

I would like to embed this https://www.passport.gov.gr/passports/GrElotConverter/GrElotConverterEn.html in my query to change names from Greek to Latin characters.

 

Name GreekName Latin
  
  

 

I cannot just use the replace option ot merge it a table becuase there are many alternatives. For example, μπ is turned to B in the beginning of a name but remains mp when in the middle.

 

Many thanks in advance

Hi @KatBous ,

 I don't think there is a way to do this in Power Query by itself, maybe look at Azure translator:
