English to Hindi
Translate an English book into Hindi, and keep the English
Have an English novel, textbook or non-fiction book you would rather read in Hindi, or in both? Upload it and get it back with Hindi beside every paragraph, so you can follow the book in Hindi and check the author's English whenever a sentence stops you.
It is a truth universally acknowledged, that a single man in possession of a good fortune, must be in want of a wife.
यह एक सर्वमान्य सत्य है कि अच्छी-ख़ासी दौलत वाले किसी अविवाहित पुरुष को एक पत्नी की ज़रूरत होती ही है।
“My dear Mr. Bennet,” said his lady to him one day, “have you heard that Netherfield Park is let at last?”
“मेरे प्रिय मिस्टर बेनेट,” एक दिन उनकी पत्नी ने उनसे कहा, “क्या आपने सुना कि नेदरफ़ील्ड पार्क आख़िरकार किराये पर उठ गया है?”
How it works
Upload the book, choose Hindi, and look at the free preview of the opening pages, side by side. If it reads well, translate the whole book and read it in the browser, or download it as a PDF, an EPUB, or a Kindle file. More about translating a book.
Reading English with Hindi beside it
English you can fall back on
Many readers are comfortable with English for study or work but prefer Hindi for pleasure, or the other way round. With both on the page you do not have to choose: read the Hindi, and glance across at the English for a technical term, a name or a joke that does not travel.
Devanagari on screen and in the file
The Hindi is set in Devanagari in the browser and in the PDF and EPUB files. Look at the free preview on the device you will read on: an older e-reader without Devanagari support can show empty boxes instead of letters.
Questions
How do I translate an English book into Hindi?
Upload the book as an EPUB, PDF, Word, text or HTML file and choose Hindi. You see the opening pages translated for free; then translate the whole book and read it in the browser or download it. A free account starts with 50 pages.
What does it cost to translate a whole book into Hindi?
The preview is free and needs no card. 50 pages free, then from $5 a month. A 200-page book: $3, in one piece.
Can I translate a PDF book from English to Hindi?
Yes. A PDF with selectable text works best; scans are read with text recognition and the result depends on the scan. The page layout is not copied: the text, headings and chapters come back paragraph by paragraph, with the Hindi beside the English.
Which files can I upload, and where do I get English books?
Any DRM-free file: an EPUB, a PDF, a Word document, a text file or an HTML page. Ebooks locked to a shop's app (most Kindle, Kobo and Apple Books purchases) cannot be opened. Public-domain English classics are free to download from Project Gutenberg, Standard Ebooks and Wikisource.
Is the Hindi translation accurate?
It is made by machine: good for following a book and understanding it, not a polished literary translation. That is why the English stays beside it, so you can check any sentence against the author's own words.
What do I get at the end?
You read the book in the browser with both languages paragraph by paragraph, or download it as a PDF or EPUB, or as AZW3 or MOBI for Kindle. The translation is for your own reading; publishing one needs the rights to the book.
