N'Ko is a unique script created in 1949 by Solomana Kante specifically for Mande languages of West Africa. Written right to left, it was designed to disprove the colonial claim that Africa had no indigenous writing systems.
Researchers of West African languages and scripts, African cultural historians, UNESCO African language preservation specialists, and the growing N'Ko literacy movement in Guinea and Mali.
NKo is spoken by 35M+ people, primarily in West Africa (Guinea, Mali, Ivory Coast). It uses the N'Ko writing system, which is written right to left.
Romanization (also called transliteration) converts N'Ko characters to their equivalent Latin (Roman) letter representations. This allows speakers of Latin-script languages to read and pronounce NKo text without knowing the N'Ko script.
This tool uses Google's neural romanization engine to convert NKo text to Latin script in real time. The romanization follows standard transliteration conventions and is updated automatically 800ms after you stop typing — no button click required.
