Fix Turkish Text Typed Without Turkish Letters

Messages written on an English keyboard or a phone without a Turkish layout often lose their special letters: "Turkce karakter yok" instead of "Türkçe karakter yok". The Turkish Character Fixer puts ç, ğ, ı, İ, ö, ş and ü back where they belong. It also works the other way and strips them, which is handy for file names, usernames or systems that only accept ASCII.

• Add Turkish characters: "Bugun hava cok guzel" becomes "Bugün hava çok güzel".
• Remove Turkish characters: ç→c, ğ→g, ı→i, İ→I, ö→o, ş→s, ü→u.
• Highlighted changes: Every letter the tool changed is marked, so you can check it at a glance.
• Copy with one click: Take the corrected text straight to your email, document or chat.

How does it work?

A Proven Statistical Method

The tool uses the well-known Turkish deasciifier algorithm by Deniz Yüret. For each c, g, i, o, s and u it looks at up to ten letters on each side and checks them against decision lists learned from a large body of Turkish text. That is why it gets "cok" → "çok" and "Istanbul" → "İstanbul" right without a dictionary.

Give It a Quick Proofread

Because the decision is statistical, most words come out right, but a few ambiguous ones can be read two ways, such as "ise" and "işe". The highlighted letters make those easy to spot. Your text never leaves your browser.
