How it works
Urdu spelling cannot be guessed letter-by-letter from Roman writing - 'hai' is ہے, not a sound-by-sound spelling. So this converter first matches every word against a built-in dictionary of the most common Urdu words, names and phrases - the words that make up everyday sentences - and converts those exactly. Words outside the dictionary are transliterated sound-by-sound using Urdu letter rules (kh → کھ, sh → ش, ch → چ and so on). Punctuation is converted too: a full stop becomes ۔ and a question mark becomes ؟. Everyday sentences convert almost perfectly; give unusual names or rare words a quick glance before sending.
Worked example
You type: 'Assalam-o-Alaikum, mera naam Ahmed hai. Main school mein ustad hoon aur mujhe taleem se mohabbat hai.' The result: 'السلام علیکم، میرا نام احمد ہے۔ میں اسکول میں استاد ہوں اور مجھے تعلیم سے محبت ہے۔' - ready for an official message.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is the Roman Urdu converter free?
Yes - completely free, no sign-up, use it as often as you like.
How accurate is it?
Everyday sentences built from common words convert almost exactly, because those words come from a real dictionary. Rare words and unusual names are sounded out letter-by-letter and may need a small correction.
Can it convert Urdu script back to Roman?
Not yet - this tool converts Roman Urdu into Urdu script, the direction people need for documents and formal messages.
Does it fix my spelling mistakes?
