Want to subtitle? Let people know!

Ok I understand but let me tell you that when I first started learning Hindi I learned first how to speak it and I have recently mastered how to write it and I’m not 13 I’m 23 :smiling_face:

Whenever I start learning a language I always start from the basics of it and I know that the scrip is called Devangari. Beside Hindi I undersand a bit Gujrati, Marathi and Bengali (but I’m not fluent in them like Hindi which I also can write now)
What I mean by this is that I’m not a beginner in the Hindi language.

I also meant the laptop keybord by my quesion nott just the language bcuz I have for some reason two different keyboards in mine. One for Hindi and one for devangari why is that? It should only be one!

Thank You

For the keyboard question, you have to wait for a Hindi volunteer, they might be able to help.
The only thing that I found on this is:

So you learned the writing system 10 years after you had started learning the language?

You do seem to be a beginner in the script, which is an essential part of the language.

It might be the same as with the Korean keyboard setting, where you can switch between Hangeul and Latin, even though Hangeul is the only official script for Korean. It’s just a handy way to type something in another script if you need to without having to change your settings.

I am a Gboard user, and from what i know and understand, the Hindi [Latin] and Hinglish keyboards are in latin script and are mainly what most of us hindi speakers use for chatting. It’s autocorrect, suggest tab and spelling check features are programmed for the hindi language, just in latin script. For example, if i were to write a hindi word in the hindi [latin] keyboard, it won’t be underlined in red, whereas same word would be underlined in the english keyboard. It’s just about convenience, like @/mirjam_465 said.
Whereas, like @/irmar mentioned, the Devanagri script is used in all the official documents and is what’s taught in schools, hence subtitling should be done in Devanagri.

If you said that you’re fluent in writing hindi, why are you looking for someone who recruits non-Devanagri subtitlers? Unless you’re only fluent in writing hindi in the latin script. If that’s the case, then i suggest practicing with the phonetic keyboard irmar shared. It converts the latin words to devanagri based on how they sound, but you should at least be able to read it and have a little knowledge about spellings and vowel diacritic so you’d be able to check if the conversion is correct or not.

Thanks for the tag, dear.
