Google has introduced Hindi translation services for the benefit of about 700 million people of India who are more comfortable with Hindi than English. Type in the query in English words plus Hindi language to get the desired results.

It is a well-versed fact that only 30 per cent of Indian population can read and write English and the remaining are at sea when it comes to the language. It means that about 700 million people are not taking advantage of the Internet. Keeping this in mind, Google Inc has introduced automated translation between Hindi and English. This is an audacious step to ensure that Hindi speaking people can also enjoy the Internet regardless of their unfamiliarity with the English language. There is no doubt that this ground-breaking step will certainly increase the number of users of Internet.


Google, the monster search engine for translator supporting Hindi language is the most advanced in a series of updates focussed at multi-lingual users not only in India but also in the world. Some of the multilingual features offered by Google include data entry, blogs and search. Internet users can type in Hindi using a regular keyboard - type the word as it sounds; like type ab apna sa laga using regular English characters, hit the space bar, and Google converts it to the corresponding Hindi words.

This feature is also available in one of the widely used social networking websites - Orkut. Now, its users proudly used Hindi translation service for sending scraps not just in Hindi but also in other Indian languages like Tamil, Telugu, Kannada and Malayalam.


There is no denying the fact that Google has tried to attract Hindi speaking people who want to use the Internet to meet their demands. Before the advent of Google translation service, they were compelled to sit away from the Internet and consequently Google and other search engines were unable catch millions of Hindi speaking people of India and the world. Therefore, on behalf of all Hindi speaking people, I am congratulating Google from the bottom of my heart for making their dream come true.
