Script Converter – More than a Google Translate

If the user can understand spoken Tamil but cannot read the script, they will be able to view Tamil web pages in English (Roman) script. We do not translate any content - we transform the words on the page to its phonetic equivalent in the desired script.

The quote above is from Google Converter detail site that will show you how and about of this new feature from Google. Currently Google with their Google Labs always develop any new application to ease and comfort us using Google.

One of their breakthroughs is Google converter. This application allows you to convert any script or web page into some languages that you may know. Quite same as Google translate but this feature will totally convert the script as you can compare through the images below. Somehow, Google translate you may find some original texts that cannot be translated.

However, currently Google Converter only supports 8 languages –Bengali, English, Gujarati, Devanagari (Hindi, Marathi, Nepali), Kannada, Malayalam, Tamil and Telugu. China Mandarin script will be coming soon while the engineers are working on it. We hope it will be available as many as language available in Google Translate immediately or even also available for some old language including Sansekerta, Ancient Egypt, or Latin. It seems to be easy to convert any old and ancient manuscript if these language also available in Google Converter.
