For example, when I open http://malayalam.indiatyping.com/ for typing in Malayalam, I landed to English to Malayalam Converter tab in the Malayalam Typing web page. As you can see the animation below that I am typing in English and it gets converted to Malayalam. (click to enlarge)
Now you have text in Malayalam, which you can select, copy and paste in the Word Press Block Editor, directly.
You can click on the converted word to change or make corrections.
Add your content to your Blog
When you are finished typing your content, you can copy the content and paste directly to your Page Editor/Website Builder. You can also save the content to Microsoft Document file or as a text file.
Other Alternative – Translations
If you are not having knowledge of the language you want to work on, I recommend you hire someone who is good in both English and the other regional language.
This is a paid option but worth it, as autotranslations at times do not convey the same meaning or translates incomplete or wrong.
Google Translate
You can navigate to https://translate.google.com/ and get an auto-translated text from one language to another. You can copy the content and paste it in your Website Page Editor/Website Builder.
Auto Translate using WordPress Plugins
Alternatively, you can just install and activate the GTranslate WordPress Plugin. Once activated, you can add this widget to your website sidebar. The advantage of using it is that you can have content in English and the user can select the language.
It is important to note that it uses AI-based auto translations, which at times are not accurate.
