* <code>{lll|ddd}</code> produces <code>lll</code> in Latin and <code>ddd</code> in Derani. ''(unimplemented in wiki)''

Example of Lerani input and Derani output:

Lerani is useful because both scripts contain information that the other does not. If you only have Latin strings and try to generate Derani from them, you it's hard to algorithmically place cartouches. If you only have Derani strings and try to generate Latin from them, you don't know which words should be capitalized.

To translate from Lerani to Latin, all instances of <code>* [ ]</code> are simply erased. To translate from Lerani to Derani, a more complex algorithm is used. See [[Module:Deranize]] for a Lua implementation.
