I was looking for a clue on how to use cyrillics in an english text and vice versa. Finally I found a solution here: Cyrillic in (La)TeX

The solution looks like this 

\documentclass[article, 12pt]{article} 

\usepackage[T1,T2A]{fontenc}
%\usepackage[cp1251]{inputenx}
\usepackage[utf8]{inputenx}
\usepackage[russian, english]{babel}
%\usepackage{cmap}

However it does not hyphenate the russian part of the text. How can I help this?

  • Welcome to TeX.sx! Have you changed the language in-document with \selectlanguage{russion} or the otherlanguage environment? – Qrrbrbirlbel Oct 19 '12 at 07:54
  • no...i am not sure it will do...i wrote an article in english, now i would like to render it in russian...so that it is not a fragment of the text that is to be in cyrillics but the whole text. however, while translating it an moving back and forth i d like to have both laguages active...but i ll try your tip about \selectlanguage thanks – shep Oct 19 '12 at 08:12
  • well, i m answering my own question...It's the order in babel that matters. with english first, russian second the hyphenation defect has gone....I found this in the \selectlanguage discussion...Thanks, Qrrbrbirlbel! – shep Oct 19 '12 at 08:34
  • This is a very basic part of how babel works: I doubt the question will help others, so closing. – Joseph Wright Nov 21 '12 at 08:38
