Punjabi typing in Gurmukhi

This Punjabi typing tool writes Gurmukhi. Enter Punjabi words with Roman letters, then use Space or a suggestion to accept the Gurmukhi spelling.

Look closely at doubled consonants, nasal marks and vowel signs. Roman Punjabi does not always make these distinctions explicit. Names and greetings may need a different spelling from the first suggestion.

Punjabi can also be written in Shahmukhi. This page outputs Gurmukhi only. The Urdu editor uses a different language pack and is not a Punjabi-to-Shahmukhi converter. The downloaded text is Unicode Gurmukhi rather than AnmolLipi or another legacy encoding.

Editing and saving your text

Choose a suggestion with the up and down arrows, or tap it on a phone. Escape keeps the current word in Roman letters. On a hardware keyboard, Backspace immediately after a converted word lets you revise its Roman spelling.

The editor accepts up to 20,000 characters. Conversion runs locally after the selected language files load. Copy and TXT download preserve Unicode text, punctuation and line breaks. Check spellings before using the result in a document.
