Yes, I mean a English-Hindi translator. And the word-sense disambiguation
is not on the ideas page but, I was planning to do it if I could complete
the translator. I wrote that by mistake. I will keep in touch with you
regarding this.

Sorry for using the wrong terminology. It is translation, not
transliteration. I kind of changed the whole idea by using this word! I
donot know how difficult that would be but, I would definitely like to
start working on this. I will keep asking things here and to my mentor if I
get stuck. Also, I will definitely figure out things myself. But, this is
the project that I would like to do as off now. If I change my idea, I will
let you know.
