Sanskrit transliterator

I’ve built a simple Sanskrit transliterator. You can type in words in English and it will spell them out in Sanskrit. You can copy-paste the Tamil above into Microsoft Word, etc.

Browse through my Javascript to see how it works. Feel free to reuse.

Saurabh 28 Aug 2006 12:00 pm: Good work, wonder how many use Sanskrit these days though! One more thing, specific to Mac users, is that Indic support is still not mature for Firefox. Safari, the inbuilt browser does a decent job though. There was an extra “S” that was appearing after each letter in Safari.

Madhu 28 Aug 2006 12:00 pm: Awesome, again what ur doing at Infy consulting, u shud be developing products at google:)

KK 28 Aug 2006 12:00 pm: It is really awesome

vikram 28 Aug 2006 12:00 pm: i cannot see any translation in firefox 1.5.0.12 version

Animesh 28 Aug 2006 12:00 pm: Good tool, but the transliteration scheme should be replaced by more standard one.

Ashwin (you know me!!) 28 Aug 2006 12:00 pm: nice one buddy!!although how would you deal with ambiguities like “om” ?

Anand 28 Aug 2006 12:00 pm: Hmm, I wonder…can you please check if the small ‘‘i’’ maatra works fine? I gave the word ‘‘janani’’ and the ‘‘i’’ gave me the maatra AFTER the second ‘’na’’, while it should be BEFORE. The big ‘‘ii’’/‘‘I’’ works fine. Also words like ‘‘chithram’’ etc - basically wherever there is a small ‘‘i’’!

Rama Krishna 28 Aug 2006 12:00 pm: Really Good. Keep up the good work
