: Yes. X was canonized as opposed the other one. Saints are beatified.

: The sentence is about Roman Catholic Church traditions. R C C: Saints are beatified. The term “beatification” cannot be used in the Russian Orth. Church tradition. The term “canonization” is a general one and can be found on the official R O Ch websites.

beatification/canonization
The official website patriarhia.ru doesn't contain "beatification". As far as I know it is impossible to replace the Orthodox terms with the Catholic ones. In the situations like this I prefer words with general meanings. And you should not forget that “canonization” itself can be different. What saints do YOU mean in YOUR translation?
