This is difficult, as the purpose of your transliteration must be known.
For example, if you want your readers to properly pronounce the Greek
word, most frequently the letter i would be needed. But, if you need to
reflect linguistic or historical accuracy, e with a line over it
(makron) is needed. NOTE:
pericope, agape, exegesis, etc. These reflect correct English spellings
for the words but do not suggest the correct pronunciation (pericopi,
agapi, exigisis, respectively). I think you get my drift...
