"Often"?  I don't think so.  "Ts" is normal for most uses; "c" is
typically used in scientific/linguistic works.

[sqlite] Fixes to the transliteration table in ext/misc/spellfix.c

2018-03-30 Thread Marcin Ciura 
In http://www.sqlite.org/src/artifact/b3a644285cb008f3:

  { 0x0392,  0x42, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00 },  /* Β to B */
  { 0x03B2,  0x62, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00 },  /* β to b */

Although Ancient Greek beta is rendered as B, Modern Greek beta is
transliterated as V:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Romanization_of_Greek#Modern_Greek

  { 0x040B,  0x44, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00 },  /* Ћ to D */
  { 0x045B,  0x64, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00 },  /* ћ to d */

This Serbian letter corresponds to Croatian Ć, so it should be
transliterated as C: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tshe

  { 0x0409,  0x49, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00 },  /* Љ to I */
  { 0x0459,  0x69, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00 },  /* љ to i */

This Serbian letter corresponds to the Croatian digraph Lj, so it should be
transliterated as L (probably not Lj for consistency with Њ transliterated
as N): https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lje

  { 0x0426,  0x54, 0x63, 0x00, 0x00 },  /* Ц to Tc */
  { 0x0446,  0x74, 0x63, 0x00, 0x00 },  /* ц to tc */

This Cyrillic letter is usually transliterated as Ts.  Unless "Tc" is a
hack meant to cover both "Ts" and the rarer transliteration "C", it looks
like a typo: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tse_(Cyrillic)
