01 · How Gujarati typing works
Type the sound. Fix the spelling with a tap.
Gujarati drops the headline bar that Devanagari has, but the sounds and the conjunct logic are shared, so the same Roman habits apply. Final a is read as ā (kharaa), a full stop stays a dot, and ળ is a capital L.
- 01
ળ is capital L
The retroflex ળ turns up in words like ગુજરાતી તમારી શાળા. Type a capital L.
- shaaLaaશાળા
- DhokaLaaઢોકળા
- 02
ૉ for English words
.o gives ૉ (and ઑ at the start of a word).
- D.okTarડૉક્ટર
- .ophisઑફિસ
- 03
ક્ષ and જ્ઞ
ksh gives ક્ષ and jn gives જ્ઞ; gy at the start of a word also gives જ્ઞ.
- shikshaNશિક્ષણ
- vijnaanવિજ્ઞાન

Anusvara is automatic
n or m before a consonant becomes the dot ં (suMdar). Add an underscore to keep the half-n.

02 · Spelling ambiguity
Where Gujarati spellings differ, and how to correct them.
Gujarati typing is ambiguous in ળ versus લ, ણ versus ન, ch versus chh and the long and short vowel signs. Every pair below was run through the typing engine when the page was built, and a test checks each one.
ન or ણ
Capital N inside a word is ણ.

05 · FAQ
Questions about Gujarati typing
Can I type Gujarati digits?
Tick “Native digits” under the box and the digits 0–9 are written as ૦–૯ as you type.
What about old TeraFont or LMG Arun files?
Use the TeraFont Trilochan to Unicode converter linked below for legacy-font text; this page is for typing new text.
How do I type Gujarati using English letters?
Click in the box and type each word the way it sounds, for example “kem chho mitro”. When you press space or a punctuation key the word becomes Gujarati (કેમ છો મિત્રો). The chips above the box list other spellings; press 1–5 or tap one to swap it in.
A word came out wrong. How do I fix it?
Right after a word converts, press Backspace once to get your English letters back and edit them, or press Ctrl+Z, or tap “Undo word”. You can also tap another chip before pressing space. Switch with Ctrl+Space when you want plain English.
Is my text uploaded anywhere?
No. The conversion runs in your browser. The page downloads one small word-list file from this site so it can suggest spellings; what you type is never sent. The text is kept in this tab’s session storage so a refresh does not lose it, and it disappears when you close the tab.
Does it work on a phone?
It is built for touch screens: big tappable chips, and the conversion waits until your keyboard has finished its own word so predictive keyboards do not fight it. If your phone keyboard autocorrects Roman words before this page sees them, turn off auto-correct for this site or use the suggestion chips.
Can I save what I typed?
Yes: Copy puts the Gujarati text on the clipboard, and the download buttons save a .txt or a Word .docx. The text is standard Unicode, so it pastes into WhatsApp, Gmail, Word and Google Docs.
