    Wait you used both Latin and Cyrillic scripts to describe that.

    Are they both used in former Soviet countries? Are the Cyrillic words phonetically closer to what GOST would sound like?

      I’m trying to understand your question. Latin and Cyrillic scripts? Depends on language. In Russian only Cyrillic. Polish I think uses Latin.

      Are the Cyrillic words phonetically closer to what GOST would sound like?

      GOST is transliteration of ГОСТ. International Standard is translation. Or Interstate Standard if “государство” is translated as state.
