How to type in Hindi and other Indian languages on any website like Facebook, Twitter
If internet is your religion then Google is your God 
Always there to guide and help. This time with their Transliteration bookmarklet. Sometimes when you want to reply in Hindi or any other language you simply feel helpless and you wish for an easy way that could enable you to write in Hindi or other languages. Google powered websites like Orkut has automatic option of writing in Hindi but not all of them provide such luxury. At different forums it simply is a tough task.
Thanks to Google’s Transliteration bookmarklet it is simply matters of clicks. If you want to write यार मस्त कट रही है instead you type “yaar mast kat rahi hai” and this can easily be translated into Devanagri script. Same goes for other languages as well.
Please follow the steps (The same steps are followed for other languages as well, links for other language bookmarklet is given at the end of the page):
- Drag and drop this link [अ Type in Hindi] your browser’s bookmark bar
- Now, when you want to type in Hindi on a particular website just click it once
- It will enable the translation. You can see अ in the type box.
- If want to stop typing in Hindi, click it once again and it will be disabled
Remember: You have to click on the bookmarklet for each website i.e. if you have multiple tabs open, then click on it for each tab. If you opened another website on the same tab you have to click it again to type in Hindi. But it’s not a pain as it is only a matter of a click.
