Reading the Kannada you paste
- Script
- Kannada script, close to Telugu script, written left to right.
- Numbers
- Kannada digits exist, but 0–9 is used in daily writing.
- Mixed text
- Bengaluru speech mixes in English words, especially at work.
- Names
- Names often carry a village or family initial before the given name.
What you get in Hindi
- Saying "you"
- Hindi has three ways of saying "you": aap (respectful), tum (familiar) and tu (very close or rude). The translation follows the tone of what you paste.
- Sentence order
- Kannada and Hindi both put the verb at the end, so most sentences keep their shape; idioms still need rewording.
- Script
- Devanagari, written left to right, with a line along the top of each word and no capital letters.
- Who reads it
- Hindi is spoken across North and Central India.

Are names, dates and amounts kept?
The translator keeps names and figures as they are, but machine translation can slip — check dates and amounts against the original before you send.
Which "you" will the Hindi use?
The one that fits the tone of what you paste — a respectful message stays respectful for a Hindi reader.
