Google Tamil Typing
I found a typo on a Tamil Wikipedia page and I wanted to fix it. But I was unable to do so because I didn’t have the right Tamil keyboard. So I went in search of a transliteration tool that I can use to type Tamil in English. There are several tools already available in the market. Some of these tools are
- Azhagi
- e-Kalappai
I have tried both of those tools in the past and abandoned them for not being complete with all the features that I wanted. I also tried early versions of Google’s Transliteration tools for some time. But I wasn’t very satisfied with it either.
I decided to give Google Transliteration tools another chance. I was pleasantly surprised to see several updates to the tools and suite has been rebranded as Google Input Tools. Google has done a good in simplifying their Transliteration tools, expanding it to Web and Mobile and adding more words to their dictionary. I believe that the tools will help Tamil writers all around the world and everyone should give it a try.
