Tanglish to Tamil Converter: Write Tamil Using English Letters

Published on December 13, 2024

Cannot type Tamil on your keyboard? No problem. Tanglish lets you type Tamil words using English letters, and our converter transforms them into beautiful Tamil script instantly.

Whether you call it Tanglish, Tamil transliteration, or phonetic Tamil typing — the concept is simple: type "vanakkam" and get "வணக்கம்". This guide shows you exactly how it works.

What is Tanglish?

Tanglish is Tamil written using English letters. Instead of typing in Tamil script directly, you type Tamil words phonetically using the English alphabet. A converter then transforms this into proper Tamil script.

This is the easiest way to type Tamil for anyone who knows how to type in English but does not have a Tamil keyboard.
