Wiktionary:Ilocano transliteration
These are the rules concerning transliteration in Ilocano entries.
Modern Ilocano is written in Latin script, but the ancient Kur-itan script is also occasionally used, and Wiktionary also provides Kur-itan forms for many Ilocano words. The transliteration for Ilocano terms in Kur-itan is based on the reconstructed phonological inventory of ancient Ilocano, which does not have /e ~ ɯ/ and /o/. L, R and RR use the same Kur-itan letter, and the transliteration must be provided if the letter does not stand for /l/.
