Singlish to Sinhala

Type how the word sounds: “mama gedara yanawaa” becomes මම ගෙදර යනවා. Double a vowel to make it long (aa → ා, ii → ී, uu → ූ, ee → ේ, oo → ෝ), and use capital letters for the less common letters: N → ණ, L → ළ, D → ඩ, T → ඨ, Sh → ෂ. The guide below lists every key.

Yes. The result is standard Sinhala Unicode, so it works everywhere: social media, email, Word, Google Docs and websites. For printing with FM fonts such as FM Abhaya, convert it with our FM to Unicode converter.

Put it in curly brackets. “mata {email} ekak ewanna” becomes මට email එකක් එවන්න.

Type the letters together: “shrii” gives ශ්‍රී, “pra” gives ප්‍ර and “dya” gives ද්‍ය. A consonant followed directly by r or y and a vowel joins up automatically.
