Unicode is a standard that defines all the letters in all the languages around the world. Text typed in Unicode can be read on all the computers without installing any extra piece of software.

This conversion of one script to another (i.e. Roman script to Devanagari) is called transliteration. However, some people mistakenly call it English to Nepali translation. Translation happens when vocabulary is changed. In this Nepali typing tool, only alphabets are changed to a different script.

Nepali is written using Devanagari script. This script is also shared by several other languages including Sanskrit, Marathi and Maithili. Nepali typing on computer picked up pace when Unicode standard was defined for Nepali. Earlier, Nepali was written on computers using legacy, non-Unicode fonts like Krutidev, Shusha, Shiva and Chanakya. Scores of such fonts were in use between the year 2000 and 2006.

The main trouble with these fonts was that the Nepali text typed on one computer was not readable on other computers if the font used was absent on the target computer. To get around this problem, people used to send the font file along with the typed Nepali material. The reader had to first install the font and only then the file used to become legible.

This problem aggravated when Internet became popular on India and people began to type Nepali online. Thousands of blogs and websites in Nepali language came up. Such websites had no option but to place a notice on their homepage with instructions on how to download the legacy font that was used on the website.

All these problems began to vanish when Unicode came by. It revolutionized the online Nepali typing. Google came up with Transliteration tool that allowed users to do English to Nepali translation (it is actually conversion, but many people still call it translation). In no time, several font converters were also developed to allow automatic conversion of Nepali text into Unicode. Microsoft bundled the Mangal font with its Windows operating system. Mangal is a Unicode font and it solved the problem of unavailability of a universal font. Now that Mangal was present on almost all the computers, online typing in Nepali and display of Devanagari script on websites became very easy.

Nepali is a major language in India. It is understood in most parts of the country but states like Delhi, Uttar Pradesh, Bihar and Madhya Pradesh constitute a so-called Nepali Belt. These are the states where Nepali is the lingua franca.

Now, use of Nepali on computer, Internet and mobile devices is fairly popular. Nepali speakers want to type status messages on WhatsApp, posts on Facebook and emails in Nepali. It is heartening to see that technological support has given a great boost to the online presence of Nepali language. Online content in Nepali is not yet in excellent shape but things are moving is a better direction. Companies have been showing their confidence in Nepali content. This could turn out to be a big moment for professional bloggers who do blogging in Nepali language.
