Hi!

> I would say "but also on source language and in the language context where the transliteration is used". And maybe the example could be replaced by a more difficult one - like a Greek name that has multiple translations, depending on whether it is treated as a classical name or a modern name, on the language of the context, and on the specific transliteration scheme used.

This is a good change, and some examples may be what are needed; I would make the sentence read (you have to say "depend on" not "depend in":
"but also on source language and in many cases on the situation where the transliteration is used, and even perhaps on the historical context of the original."
Thanks very much!
Best,
