Translate Hindi into English with the free AdeptWrite AI translator, already set to this pair. Hindi puts the verb last, shows respect through three forms of "you", and uses the same pronoun वह for he, she and it. A good translation reorders the sentence, turns honorific forms into polite English phrasing and converts lakh and crore where your readers expect it. Paste your text, pick a tone and check names and figures.
Tips for this language pair
- Reorder the sentence. Hindi ends with the verb, so "मैं रोज़ स्कूल जाता हूँ" becomes "I go to school every day".
- Turn honorifics into tone. Aap, tum and tu all become "you" in English, so show respect with words such as "please" and "would you".
- Decide the gender of वह from the verb ending: जा रहा है is he, जा रही है is she.
- Convert Indian numbers for global readers: 3 lakh is 300,000 and 5 crore is 50 million, or keep the Indian term and add the conversion once.
Example translations
| Original · Hindi | Translation · English | Why it is translated this way |
|---|---|---|
| वह कल दिल्ली जा रहा है। | He is going to Delhi tomorrow. | The masculine ending रहा shows the subject is male, so वह is translated as "he". |
| आप कृपया यहाँ बैठिए। | Please take a seat here. | The honorific form बैठिए becomes a polite request in English. |
| मुझे तीन लाख रुपये चाहिए। | I need 300,000 rupees (three lakh). | A lakh is 100,000. The bracket helps Indian readers who count in lakh. |
| यह तो ऊँट के मुँह में जीरा है। | That is just a drop in the ocean. | Literally "cumin in a camel’s mouth", an idiom for something far too small for the need. English uses an equivalent idiom. |
Frequently asked questions
Is the Hindi to English translator free?
Yes. It is free and needs no sign-up. Paste a few paragraphs at a time (the tool shows the limit per request), choose a natural, formal or casual tone, and translate longer documents section by section. Your text is not stored or used to train models.
Does it understand Hinglish?
It often copes with Hindi mixed with English words, and with Hindi typed in Roman letters, but accuracy drops with slang and unusual spellings. For important text, write the Hindi in Devanagari for the best result.
How are idioms and proverbs handled?
The translator tries to give an English equivalent, as with the camel and cumin proverb above, but it can translate some idioms literally. Check any figure of speech and rewrite it in plain words if the result sounds odd.
