Type in Kannada

Simply type Kannada words phonetically using English letters as you would pronounce them. Our Google-powered tool automatically converts your English input into Kannada script. For example, type "namaskara" and get "ನಮಸ್ಕಾರ".

The conversion happens when you press the spacebar. If the suggested Kannada word isn't what you intended, you can backspace or click on it to see alternative transliterations.

Tip: Type as simply as speaking — no need to memorize complex keyboard layouts or learn special typing techniques.

These serve different purposes for Kannada users:

Kannada Translation converts the meaning from one language to another. Translating "Good morning" gives you the equivalent Kannada greeting "ಶುಭೋದಯ" (shubhodaya) with the same meaning.

Kannada Transliteration converts the script while keeping the same sounds. Type "kannada" and get "ಕನ್ನಡ" — same pronunciation, Kannada script.
