Common problems
- A word comes out with the wrong spelling — try typing it phonetically a different way, or edit the output directly.
- Digraphs like sh, ch, zh, and shch need to be typed as a unit — splitting them can produce the wrong letter.
- Less common words may fall back to basic letter rules instead of the dictionary, which is not always exact.
Copy & paste
The output is standard Unicode Russian — copy it directly into WhatsApp, Telegram, Gmail, Word, or Google Docs, it works everywhere.
On mobile
Works in your phone's browser with no app to install; the on-screen Russian (ЙЦУКЕН) keyboard is available if you prefer tapping over phonetic typing.
Frequently asked questions
How does English to Russian typing work?
Type Russian words the way they sound, using English (Roman) letters, and the tool converts them into Cyrillic as you type. You can then copy, download, print, or share the text.
Is this a translator?
No — this is transliteration, not translation. It converts the sounds you type into Cyrillic script. To get Russian words, type Russian phonetically; English sentences are not translated.
Is it free? Do I need to sign up?
Completely free, no account needed. Your text is processed in your browser and autosaved locally — nothing is uploaded to our servers.
Can I use the Russian text in WhatsApp, Gmail, or Word?
Yes. The output is standard Unicode Russian, which works everywhere — WhatsApp, social media, Gmail, MS Word, Google Docs, and official documents.
