Good to know
Transliteration preserves sound rather than meaning, so it is not translation. Hindi vowel signs attach to the preceding consonant, and long vowels use aa, ee and oo; always review names by hand.
Frequently asked questions
Is transliteration the same as translation?
No. This converts the writing system phonetically; the words stay Hindi. It does not translate Hindi into English meaning.
How are long vowels written?
Double the vowel: aa, ee and oo map to the long forms, while a, i and u map to the short ones.
Will the Devanagari work in other apps?
Yes. The output is standard Unicode, so it pastes into documents, websites and phones without a special font.
