Spelling

Why is it spelled Khakassia, translated from Russian it should be spelled "Khakasia" one "s" Please explain...— Preceding unsigned comment added by 98.88.37.100 (talk • contribs)

Surely you mean "transliterated", not "translated"? :) "Khakassia" is used because that's the variant more commonly used in English than any other. "Khakasia" (as well as "Khakasiya") is also correct, but not as common.—Ëzhiki (Igels Hérissonovich Ïzhakoff-Amursky) • (yo?); July 17, 2012; 12:16 (UTC)
