How to Use Google Input Tool to Type in Any Languages

Have you ever tried to type in a language that you are not familiar with? For example, I know English, Hindi and Urdu language, but I can type in English only. I tried a couple of times, and it feels too difficult and frustrating. However, Google Input Tool can make this job easier. Google Input Tool allows to type in almost all the language, and it’s very easy to use it.

You can even type in a language that you don’t know, but you will remain in doubt if Google has typed exactly what you want or something else, because you can’t even read the language you have typed. Such apps are not the perfect solution for all situation, so you will need the help of a professional if you are doing this for your work. If you can read and understand the language, you can type like a professional, and it can also be used for work purpose.

• Whatever you type, it will be typed in the language you have selected. However, you must understand that this is a keyboard app that types in many languages, but doesn’t translate. For example, Hindi translation of this english sentence “I am playing Mario” is “Main Mario khel raha Hun.” But, when you type “I am playing Mario,” Google Keyboard will type the same in Hindi. So don’t use it as translator app
