Good to know

Written Hindi often omits the inherent a that is still pronounced, a feature called schwa deletion, so automatic romanization cannot always guess the spoken form. Vowel signs and the virama are read back into Latin letters.

Frequently asked questions

How are vowel signs handled?

Vowel signs attached to consonants are read back as the matching Latin vowels, and the virama removes the inherent a between consonants.

Why might pronunciation look off?

Hindi drops some inherent a sounds in speech that the script still implies, so the Roman output may keep an a that a speaker would skip.

Is romanization the same as translation?

No. It converts the script to Latin letters phonetically; the words stay Hindi and are not translated into English meaning.
