Azhagi's Punjabi Transliteration Scheme's Key Mappings
Punjabi can be typed (via transliteration) using Azhagi, following the English to Punjabi transliteration scheme (i.e. English-to-Punjabi key mappings for phonetic transliteration) given below.
|
x, X and ` [character under '~' in English keyboards] are used as modifiers and/or splitters
|
ਅ = a, ਆ = aa/A, ਇ = i, ਈ = ee/ii/I, ਉ = u, ਊ = oo/uu/U
ਏ = e/ae/E, ਐ = ai, ਓ = o/oa/O, ਔ = au/ou/ow
ਅਂ = aM/amx, ਅਁ = aMM/amxx/aMx (adak bindi), ਅਃ = aH
|
Tippi and Adak characters are used often in Punjabi. Hence, various alternatives are given to type them to suit the user's convenience.
ਤੂੰ = toonx (nx - tippi), ਦਿੱਲੀ = dinxxlii (nxx - adak)
ਤੂੰ = tooQ (Q - tippi), ਦਿੱਲੀ = diQQlii (QQ - adak)
ਦਿੱਲੀ = diqlii (q - adak), ਤੂੰ = tooqq (qq - tippi)
|
ਕ = ka, ਕਾ = kaa/kA, ਕਿ = ki, ਕੀ = kee/kii/kI, ਕੁ = ku, ਕੂ = koo/kuu/kU
ਕੇ = ke/kae/kE, ਕੈ = kai, ਕੋ = ko/koa/kO, ਕੌ = kau/kou/kow
ਕਂ = kaM/kamx, ਕਁ = kaMM/kamxx/kaMx (adak bindi), ਕਃ = kaH
|
ਕ = ka, ਖ = Ka/kha, ਗ = ga, ਘ = Ga/gha, ਙ = `ga
ਚ = ca, ਛ = Ca/cha/Cha, ਜ = ja, ਝ = Ja/jha, ਞ = `ja
ਟ = Ta, ਠ = Tha, ਡ = Da, ਢ = Dha, ਣ = Na
ਤ = ta, ਥ = tha, ਦ = da, ਧ = dha, ਨ = na
ਪ = pa, ਫ = Pa/pha, ਬ = ba, ਭ = Ba/bha, ਮ = ma

Changeable key mappings – Add, Modify, Delete key mappings
Azhagi's key mappings are fully changeable, easily. All the key mappings you find in this page are 100% editable and customisable. In other words, you can EASILY effect " Add/Modify/Delete" actions on the key mappings given by me.
Clear-cut details and steps are present in changecreate.php page, to effect the abovesaid " add/modify/delete". In fact, you can create "your own" brand new mappings file too, with "your own" preferred key mappings.
Free Support - over phone, whatsapp, email, etc.
If you need help in customising the mappings, you can opt to call over phone, whatsapp or email Shri. Gopalan sir. He would help you out. Gopalan sir's help to you will be 100% free, at all times. Please see this page for details (Gopalan sir's phone number, email, etc.)

| Consonants with nukta (dot) |
ਖ਼ = khxa, ਗ਼ = gxa, ਜ਼ = jxa/za, ਫ਼ = phxa/fa
|
ੴ = Aum/oum, ਸ਼੍ਰਿ = shri, = Sx
|
| Conjuncts (Consonant Clusters) |
|
The consonant conjuncts get formed automatically as you keep typing your words.
|
੧ = 1x, ੨ = 2x, ੩ = 3x, ੪ = 4x, ੫ = 5x
੬ = 6x, ੭ = 7x, ੮ = 8x, ੯ = 9x, ੦ = 0x
|
- x when applied after certain Punjabi letters modifies them. For e.g.
Sx = (avagraha), 1x = ੧ (Punjabi numeral 1)
- Whenever x does not take the role of a modifier, it does not print anything.
- ` when applied before certain Punjabi consonants modifies them. For e.g.
`g = ਙ, `j = ਞ
- ` when applied between certain Punjabi consonants (like k`h, g`h, t`h, d`h, etc.) helps them to form their natural conjuncts. For e.g.
bakkiMghaam = ਬਕ੍ਕਿਂਘਾਮ whereas bakkiMg`haam = ਬਕ੍ਕਿਂਗ੍ਹਾਮ
- X (or XX) can be applied between certain Punjabi vowels (say 'ai' or 'ou') to help them get separated into their component vowels. For e.g.
priyaiMDiyaa = ਪ੍ਰਿਯੈਂਡਿਯਾ whereas priyaXiMDiyaa = ਪ੍ਰਿਯਇਂਡਿਯਾ
