What is English to Oriya typing?
English to Oriya typing lets you write Oriya script with an ordinary English keyboard. Instead of learning a special Oriya keyboard layout, you spell each word with Latin letters and the converter rewrites it in Oriya script. The result is standard Oriya Unicode, so it displays correctly on Facebook, WhatsApp, Gmail, MS Word and every modern phone.
This Oriya typing page converts on your own device, so letters appear with no delay even on a slow mobile connection. Extra spelling suggestions load underneath the box whenever you are online.
