Santhali Romanization Translator Online

Convert Ol Chiki (Santhali) script to Latin romanization or turn romanized Santhali back into Ol Chiki characters using a fixed, fully disclosed character table. Multi-character sequences such as ng, aa and hh are matched longest-first in reverse, and any character outside the table is preserved and reported. Try it online.

What is Santhali Romanization Translator Online?

Santhali Romanization Translator Online is a character-level converter for Ol Chiki script and a Latin romanization string. You paste Ol Chiki text and receive a romanized Latin rendering, or you paste romanized text and receive Ol Chiki characters. It is a script converter, not a language translation service: it does not translate Hindi, Bengali or English into Santhali, and it does not check grammar or vocabulary.

The converter uses a fixed table of 38 Ol Chiki characters, each paired with a Latin string. Because several Ol Chiki characters map to more than one Latin letter, the reverse direction matches the longest Latin sequence first, so combinations like ng, aa, hh, ny, ch, nn, dd, rr, tt and nj become single Ol Chiki characters instead of being split apart.

Key Features

Two explicit directions. Ask for Ol Chiki to romanization, or romanization to Ol Chiki. You do not have to guess which box to fill.
Complete disclosed mapping. The full character table is available on request, so you can see exactly why a character became what it did.
Longest-match-first reverse conversion. Multi-character Latin sequences resolve to the correct single Ol Chiki character.
Preservation, not deletion. Any character outside the table, such as ordinary English letters in an Ol Chiki conversion or digits and punctuation not in the map, is kept as-is and listed in a short report.
Copyable output blocks. Converted text arrives in a plain code block you can copy directly.

How to Use

Paste your text and state the direction. For example: to romanization: ᱥᱟᱱᱟᱢ ᱢᱟᱱᱣᱟ ᱠᱚ. If you paste Ol Chiki characters, the direction is inferred automatically; if you paste only Latin letters, say whether you want reverse conversion or a romanization check.
Read the converted block. The agent returns the converted text first, then a short note on any characters it left unchanged.
Ask for refinements. You can request the full mapping table, a character-by-character breakdown, or a second pass on a longer passage.

Example Use Cases

Romanizing an Ol Chiki passage for a document. Paste a Santhali paragraph in Ol Chiki script and get a Latin romanization you can place in a plain-text file or spreadsheet.
Recovering Ol Chiki characters from romanized Santhali notes. If you wrote Santhali words in Latin letters, the reverse direction rebuilds the Ol Chiki characters, matching sequences like hh and ny correctly.
Checking a character map while studying Ol Chiki script. Ask for the full table or for a single character's romanization to confirm what a glyph corresponds to.

A concrete before/after example: the Ol Chiki sequence ᱥᱟᱱᱟᱢ converts to saanam under the table (ᱥ→s, ᱟ→aa, ᱱ→n, ᱟ→aa, ᱢ→m). Reversing saanam with longest-match-first matching returns ᱥᱟᱱᱟᱢ.

Tips for Best Results

State the direction when your text contains only Latin letters, because romanized input and romanized output look identical in isolation.
Keep punctuation outside the mapped set in mind: the table includes the Ol Chiki full stop and comma, but other punctuation is preserved unchanged rather than converted.
For long passages, convert in sections so the preservation report stays easy to review.

FAQ

What input format does it accept?
Plain text pasted into the chat. Ol Chiki characters, Latin letters, digits and punctuation are all accepted; anything outside the 38-character table is preserved and reported rather than removed.

Is this a Hindi-to-Santhali or Bengali-to-Santhali translator?
No. It performs character substitution between Ol Chiki script and a Latin romanization string. It does not translate words or sentences between languages and makes no claim about grammatical correctness.

How accurate is the conversion?
The forward direction is deterministic: each Ol Chiki character in the table maps to exactly one Latin string. The reverse direction is deterministic too, but because several Latin sequences can be read in more than one way in principle, the agent applies longest-match-first and tells you when a sequence was resolved that way.

How is this different from some free text tools?
Some free text tools apply a hidden character map with no explanation and no report of what was skipped. This agent states its direction, discloses the mapping on request, preserves unmapped characters, and lists them so you can verify the result.

Can it produce audio, fonts or images?
No. The output is plain text only.
