About, Methodology & Contact

Last updated: July 2026

What this site is

greeklish2greek.gr converts Greeklish into proper Greek (and back), free and privately. What sets it apart is that it tells you where it isn't sure: it underlines uncertain words and offers alternatives you can pick with one click.

Who we are

greeklish2greek.gr is a project by Abax — an independent, non-commercial maker of free, private, genuinely useful tools.

Methodology — how it works

• Transliteration rules for phonetic (thelo) and visual (8elw) Greeklish, handling diphthongs and ambiguous letters (b→μπ/β, h→η/χ, etc.).
• A ~120,000-word frequency dictionary for correct spelling and accents on common words.
• Uncertainty highlighting: words not in the dictionary, or with several valid spellings (e.g. stis → στις or στης), are underlined with clickable alternatives.
• URLs, emails, usernames and code are never converted.

Sources

• The frequency dictionary is based on open-licence data (FrequencyWords, hermitdave — MIT), normalised and filtered for this purpose.
