English term or phrase: All penguins feed on fish, squid and krill.

Penguins are aquatic birds related to sea gulls. They are now found only in the southern hemisphere but once lived in the northern hemisphere too. Picture of penguins have been found in subterranean caves in southern France. The Great Auck of Iceland which became extinct in 1844 was a type of penguin I understand.

Please translate my sentence using Roman letters. I can read Russian Cyrillic letters but they cannot be downloaded from the library computer I am using, near as I can tell.

Thanks (Spasibo) for any help! All answers are APPRECIATED!
