The translation only takes a few seconds and allows up to 500 characters to be translated in one request. Although this translation may not be 100% accurate, you can still get a basic idea, and with a few modifications, it can be quite accurate. This translation software is evolving day by day, and Google Engineers are continuously working on it to make Sinhala translation more intelligent and accurate. Hopefully, one day it will produce near-perfect translations!

Sinhala language is widely spoken, with more than 16 million people in Sri Lanka speaks this language. For those who cannot speak Sinhala, translating from Sinhala to English can be quite difficult.

For these purposes, our tool can be quite helpful.
