Convert special character (i.e. Umlaut) to most likely representation in ascii [duplicate]

问题

This question already has answers here:

PHP: Replace umlauts with closest 7-bit ASCII equivalent in an UTF-8 string (7 answers)

Closed 6 years ago.

i am looking for a method or maybe a conversion table that knows how to convert Umlauts and special characters to their most likely representation in ascii.

Example:

Ärger = aerger
Bôhme = bohme
Søren = soeren
pjérà = pjera

Anyone any idea?

Update: Apart from the good accepted Answer, i also found PECLs Normalizer to be quite interesting, though i can not use it due to the server not having it and not being changed for me.

I find iconv completely unreliable, and I dislike preg_match solutions and big arrays ... so my favorite way is ...

    function toASCII( $str )
    {
        return strtr(utf8_decode($str), 
            utf8_decode('ŠŒŽšœžŸ¥µÀÁÂÃÄÅÆÇÈÉÊËÌÍÎÏÐÑÒÓÔÕÖØÙÚÛÜÝßàáâãäåæçèéêëìíîïðñòóôõöøùúûüýÿ'),
            'SOZsozYYuAAAAAAACEEEEIIIIDNOOOOOOUUUUYsaaaaaaaceeeeiiiionoooooouuuuyy');
    }
