Supported scripts

Gimeltra converts between any pair of the scripts below. Latin (Latn) is the pivot: a pair without a direct rule is routed source → Latin → target, so every combination works even when no one wrote a rule for it directly.

Pass the ISO 15924 code to -s / --script (source) and -o / --to-script (target).

What “abjad-only” means

Gimeltra decomposes the input and strips every combining mark before mapping. Vowel points, niqqud, and harakat are discarded; only the consonantal skeleton survives. That is what lets a modern Hebrew word land cleanly in an ancient script — and why the transform is not reversible when a script folds two sounds onto one letter (Hebrew bet carries both b and v).
