What does romanizing mean?
The act of transcribing or representing something, especially a word or text, in the Roman alphabet, or the process of converting a non-Roman script into the Roman alphabet. This can also refer to the act of adapting or imitating something in a style reminiscent of ancient Rome.
Example
