This tool automatically converts Kwak̓wala/Bak̓wa̱mk̓ala text between various writing systems. Just type or copy/paste text into one of the boxes, and it will appear converted in the other box.
This tool can also convert between any of the following writing systems: U'mista, UBC IPA/NAPA, UVic IPA/NAPA, Grubb, Boas. Choose a different orthography
Some writing systems aren't exact equivalents, so you may not get a perfect conversion. Sometimes it's necessary to have a human expert look over the results and fix things up afterward.
