Our FREE typing software, powered by Google, offers fast and accurate typing, making it easy to type in Sinhala anywhere on the web.
When you type a word in English and press the spacebar, the word will be transliterated into Sinhala. You can press the backspace key or click on the selected word to see more options in the dropdown menu.
The process of transliterating English to Sinhala is very quick, and our online software allows unlimited characters and words to be transliterated. Additionally, when you press the spacebar, the text is automatically saved on your computer. So, in case of a browser crash or when you revisit, the previously transliterated text will be retrieved and displayed.
Our typing software is simple and easy to use as you don’t need to remember complex keyboard layouts or days of practice to type fluently in Sinhala.
Once you have finished typing, you can email the text to anyone for FREE directly from our website. Alternatively, you can copy the text and share it on social media platforms like Facebook or Twitter, or paste it into Word Documents for further formatting and editing.
If you have any suggestions or feedback, please leave a comment on our Facebook page. And most importantly, don’t forget to like and share our page on Facebook with your loved ones.
For example, typing "obata keseda?" will be transliterated into "ඔබට කෙසේද?".
backspace or click on any words to get more choices on a drop-down menu.Yes, it is as easy as this. No need to remember complex Sinhala keyboard layout or spend hours of your valuable time doing a speed test. Typing is as simple as speaking.
To start typing in Sinhala, just type a word as it is pronounced in English. This would then be transliterated into Sinhala. For E.g. if you type "simhala yaturu liyanayakaṭa mama kæmatiyi" then it would be transliterated into “සිංහල යතුරු ලියනයකට මම කැමතියි”.
If the transliterated word is not what you have expected - either click on the word or use the backspace to get more choices on a drop-down menu.
A translation tells you the meaning of words in another language. For E.g the translation of "I love Sinhala typing" would be "සිංහල යතුරු ලියනයකට මම කැමතියි" in Sinhala. You can use various online tool for translating word, sentence and phrase from English to Sinhala for FREE. Some of the popular translation tool are Google Translator, Bing Translator or use our own Sinhala Translation for FREE.
On the other hand, transliteration software works on phonetics. A transliteration doesn't tell you the meaning of the words but it helps you pronounce them. What you type in Roman script is converted in Sinhala script. For E.g. typing "mama obaṭa adareyi" will be converted into "මම ඔබට ආදරෙයි".
Therefore, we can say, transliteration changes the letters from one alphabet into the similar-sounding characters of another alphabet. This makes it the simplest and fastest method of typing in Sinhala without practising any Sinhala Keyboard. You can either use Google Input Tool for FREE.
