FAQ

How do I type Georgian on an English or US keyboard?

Type the way it sounds and Georgian appears live in Mkhedruli — e.g. gamarjoba → გამარჯობა. Digraphs gh kh sh ch zh ts dz map to ღ ხ შ ჩ ჟ ც ძ; apostrophe picks the paired letter: t' k' ts' ch' → ტ ქ წ ჭ. Type on your own keyboard or click the on-screen keys.

What is a Georgian phonetic (transliteration) keyboard?

You type Latin letters by sound and they turn into the Georgian alphabet using a deterministic scheme. If you already have Latin text, paste it and press Convert Latin to transliterate it all at once.

Is it free, and do I need an account?

It is completely free with no sign-up. It runs in your browser and keeps working offline once loaded.

Does PolyType save what I type?

No. PolyType does not save, collect, upload, or process your text. Your text stays in your browser and is never sent anywhere.
