About Our Translator Software


ትግርኛ ኣብ ኤርትራን ኣብ ክልል ትግራይን ዝዝረብ ሰሚታዊ ቋንቋ እዩ። ኣብ መላእ ዓለም ብዝርከቡ ልዕሊ 7 ሚልዮን ሰባት ዝዝረብ እዩ።.

For those whose first language is not ትግሪኛ, typing and translating from Tigrinya to English can be challenging. Many websites and agencies provide online and offline translation and interpreting services, but these services can be expensive, and free options often offer poor or unreliable translations.

While it makes sense to hire professionals for translating specialized subjects and official documents, there is no need to pay for translating commonly used words and phrases. For this purpose, our online software can be used.

Our translation software provides high-quality translation results for free, as it uses Google’s powerful translation API to instantly translate sentences between Tigrinya and English. You can use our tool to translate up to 500 characters per request—and the good news is, you can make unlimited requests.

Though the translation result may not always be 100% accurate, it can be quite accurate with a few modifications. We have also integrated Google’s Input Tool, which allows you to easily edit or modify the translated ትግሪኛ text. Additionally, our software is continuously evolving, and we hope it will soon produce near-perfect translations.

Our tool also allows you to download or copy the translated text, making it easy to share on social media or use in word processing software (such as Microsoft Word) for further formatting.

If you have suggestions for improving our Tigrinya to English translation, please let us know on our Facebook page.

Finally, we would appreciate it if you would like and share our page with your friends and family.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between Transliteration and Translation?

Transliteration is a process of transferring similar-sounding words from one language to another. To give you an example, typing “Kndeyu Wag’u Ezi?“ will be transliterated into “ክንደይ’ዩ ዋግኡ እዚ?“.

Whereas, translation is a process of converting the written word from one language to another. For E.g. converting text written from Tigrinya to English.

How does Tigrinya to English translation works?
