Google has launched Google Maps in Hindi.Ā Starting today, people will be able to see Hindi names forĀ cities, localities, importantĀ roads, as well as popular points of interest such as public parks and schools, on theĀ new Google Maps and on Google Maps on Android.
To viewĀ Hindi name labels on Google Maps, enable Hindi as their preferred language on your device. From a computer, you can change the language preference to Hindi on your Google account settings or by selecting the āHindiā option at the bottom of the page on theĀ google.co.inĀ home page. On Android, you just need to select the Hindi option within the āLanguage and inputā menu found in phoneās āsettings menuā.
Once Hindi has been chosen as the preferred language, people will be able to see Hindi names directly on the map. These new labels that are visible on Google Maps today have been created by transliterating English names to Hindi, or, translating the English names to Hindi and ensuring the text resonated with local dialects.
