What does the word polyglot mean?


The word polyglot mean a person than can speak or write several languages, that's a question some people are asking.
I'm not sure if a person speaks more than one language he are a polyglot but the question are answered, polyglot mean a person than can speak or write several languages.

The dictionary say:

adjective
1. able to speak or write several languages; multilingual.
2. containing, composed of, or written in several languages: a polyglot Bible
noun        .
3. a mixture or confusion of languages.
4. a person who speaks, writes, or reads a number of languages.
5. a book, especially a Bible, containing the same text in several languages.

Russian Transliteration - English to Russian

This is my first post and I'll start with russian, if you are learning the russian alphabet this post will help you, I learned the russian alphabet using this russian transliteration, I started to do some phrases in my language (portuguese) but you can do this with english and other languages, after I did the phrases I do a transliteration for the russian letters, I'll make an example:

Hello, I am Roberto - Хеллo, И aм Роберто
I am from Portugal - И aм фром Рортугaл

Atention: This is transliteration, not a translate.
