Type Nepali in English letters and get Preeti font output instantly. Most accurate, self-formatting, free, unlimited, and private.
About the tool
This free online Roman to Preeti converter turns English letters into Preeti font output as you type. There is no Nepali keyboard to install and no new layout to learn. You just type the way the words sound: mero ghar becomes Preeti-encoded text ready for Word and PageMaker. The conversion runs entirely in your browser, so the page stays private and works offline once loaded.
Behind the scenes the tool works in two steps. Your roman letters are first mapped to Unicode Devanagari, m, e, r, o become मेरो. It handles aspirated consonants like kh, gh and chh plus retroflex pairs like t/th and d/dh. That Devanagari is then encoded into Preeti, with conjuncts, reph and the i-matra placed the way the Preeti font expects. You see only the final Preeti result, ready to copy.
There is no sign-up, no character limit and nothing to install. Paste a sentence, an essay or a full document, and the Preeti output appears instantly in the right pane. Click "Copy result", paste it into your document and set the font to Preeti. Because everything runs on your device, the tool also works offline once the page has loaded.
This page uses the same most accurate, self-formatting engine as the Unicode to Preeti converter. Your Roman text is mapped to Unicode Devanagari, then the syllable-level engine auto-reorders i-matra, reph and conjuncts into Preeti visual order. If you want Unicode Devanagari output instead, use theRoman to Nepali (Unicode) converter. For Unicode text typed in Mangal, Kalimati, Nirmala UI or Kokila, use theUnicode to Preeti converter on the homepage. There is no separate step for any of those fonts.
The tool
Your roman letters first become Unicode Devanagari, then the syllable engine turns that into Preeti. You only see the last step. The middle step is what makes the hard cases work: the i-matra, the reph and the conjuncts get placed the Preeti way, not left where Unicode had them.
This page exists for Word and PageMaker files that still use the Preeti font. Type a notice, a letter or an exam paper in roman letters and paste the result straight into the document. Set the font to Preeti and the Nepali shapes appear. No keyboard to install, no layout to learn, nothing to sign up for.
Questions
Just type the way the words sound. The converter first maps your roman letters to Unicode Devanagari, m for म, e for ए, and so on, then converts that to Preeti encoding in the same step. Typing "mero ghar" gives you Preeti output ready to paste into Word with the Preeti font applied.
Type or paste romanised Nepali into the left pane and the Preeti output appears instantly in the right pane. Click "Copy result", paste it into your document, and set the font to Preeti. No Nepali keyboard or layout needs to be installed.
Yes. The tool runs entirely in your browser, so it works on any phone, tablet or computer. Just open the page and start typing with your regular keyboard. No Nepali keyboard app needs to be installed.
Nepali has aspirated and retroflex sounds that English does not spell out. The converter recognises two-letter roman groups such as kh for ख, gh for घ, chh for छ and the retroflex t/th and d/dh pairs, and produces the correct Preeti character.
Use s for स, sh for श, ch for च and chh for छ. The engine always prefers the longest match, so typing "chhu" gives छु and "sh" never comes out as स. The same rule covers the other pairs: kh for ख, gh for घ, and the retroflex t/th and d/dh pairs.
"ma" becomes म. Try the sample on this page, "ma timilai maya garchhu", and the right pane shows the Preeti output for the whole sentence. Common words like ma, mero, ghar and namaste have built-in spellings so they come out right even when letter-by-letter rules would guess wrong.
Type your romanized Nepali, Nepali written in English letters, like "mero naam", into the left pane. The converter maps it to Unicode Devanagari first, then to Preeti encoding in the same step. So the right pane shows Preeti output ready to copy into Word with the Preeti font applied. No Nepali keyboard needed.
No. Nothing you type leaves your browser, and nothing is stored or logged. The conversion runs on your own device, so it works on a shared computer or a phone without installing anything, and the page keeps working offline once it has loaded.
The Preeti step uses the same syllable-level engine as the Unicode to Preeti converter. It auto-reorders i-matra, reph and conjuncts into Preeti visual order, and the conversion is verified by 401 automated conversion checks. Self-formatting means you do not have to reorder or tidy the output by hand.
