Nepali language tools

Working with Nepali text usually means moving between scripts — Devanagari Unicode and legacy fonts such as Preeti — as well as getting numbers right in the lakh–crore system. This set of tools handles those everyday conversion jobs so you do not have to do them by hand or hunt for the correct keyboard layout.

Preeti and Unicode conversion

Two of the most-used tools convert between the legacy Preeti font and Unicode Devanagari in both directions. Preeti-to-Unicode turns old Preeti text into searchable, copy-pasteable Devanagari Unicode, and Unicode-to-Preeti goes the other way for documents that must stay in Preeti. Both run instantly in your browser.

Word counting and numbers in words

The Nepali word counter reports words, characters, sentences and paragraphs — with a reading-time estimate — for Devanagari or English text. The number-to-words converter turns any figure into Nepali and English words using the South-Asian system of lakh and crore, and shows the amount in Devanagari numerals too — ideal for cheques, vouchers and invoices. It handles paisa to two decimal places, so partial rupees are written out correctly.

Typing Nepali

The Nepali typing keyboard lets you enter Devanagari without a Nepali keyboard. Its Romanized mode converts phonetic English as you type — “namaste” becomes नमस्ते — while an on-screen keyboard lets you click the exact characters, including matras, numerals and conjuncts such as क्ष and ज्ञ. The result is Unicode text you can paste anywhere. When you want to measure progress, the Nepali typing speed test runs timed and untimed practice in English, Preeti and Unicode Traditional, with live WPM, accuracy, mistake review and saved personal bests.

Why accuracy matters

On a cheque or a contract, a spelled-out amount overrides the digits if the two disagree, so the words have to be exactly right. Getting the lakh and crore placement correct, and writing the paisa part separately, avoids rejected payments and awkward corrections at the bank counter. Whether you are filling a voucher, a rent receipt or a salary certificate, an instant, accurate conversion saves time and prevents costly slips.
