Good to know
Greek lowercase sigma has a special final form at the end of a word, and this page applies it automatically. Digraphs such as th, ph and ch map to single Greek letters, and the result is Unicode Greek.
Frequently asked questions
Does it handle the final sigma?
Yes. A sigma at the end of a word is converted to the final sigma automatically, while sigma elsewhere stays in its normal form.
How do I type letters like theta or chi?
Use the digraphs th, ph, ch, ps and ks, which map to single Greek letters.
Is this Greek translation?
No. It converts letters phonetically; it does not translate the meaning of the words into Greek.
