Devanagari is an abugida — each consonant carries an inherent "a" sound unless modified by a vowel sign (matra) or silenced with a halant (्). It's written left to right along a horizontal head-line (शिरोरेखा), unlike Latin's baseline-and-x-height system. Devanagari also writes Sanskrit, Marathi, and Nepali.
Tap the 123 button to open the number panel. It shows both Western digits (0-9) and Devanagari numerals (०-९) side by side, so you can pick whichever your audience expects — Devanagari digits are still common in print and government documents.
Yes — many users type shayari, ghazals, and Bollywood lyrics here. The Hinglish converter handles poetic vocabulary and conjunct consonants correctly, and the matras panel makes it easy to get every vowel sign exactly right for verses meant to be shared or recited.
Conjuncts form automatically when you type two consonants back to back in Hinglish mode — "ksh" becomes क्ष, "tra" becomes त्र, "gya" becomes ज्ञ. On the visual keyboard, use the halant (्) key to stack consonants manually if you need a specific conjunct.
Yes, completely. No account, no subscription, no watermark on copied text, and no limit on how much you type. The site is supported by ads, not by charging Hindi speakers to type their own language.
Hindi has around 600 million speakers globally when counting both native speakers and second-language speakers, making it one of the most-spoken languages on Earth — official language of India alongside English, widely spoken across the Hindi Belt states and the global Indian diaspora.
InScript is India's official government keyboard standard, mapping Devanagari letters to fixed physical keys — it requires memorizing a layout. Hinglish (phonetic) typing instead converts romanized spelling to Hindi automatically, so anyone who can type English can type Hindi immediately with zero memorization.
