Check punctuation after converting
This uses the Gate2Home Hebrew preset. The English w key produces a Hebrew geresh (׳). A plain ASCII apostrophe in Hebrew input is kept as it is; it is not guessed to be a geresh. For phonetic typing such as shalom, use Hebrew Transliteration from All text tools.

Frequently asked questions
Can I convert part of a mixed-language message?
Select that part in Original text, choose a direction and press Convert. Everything outside the selection stays unchanged. Without a selection, the whole input is converted.
Which keyboard variants are supported?
The plain US and named Gate2Home presets, including their normal and Shift characters. Caps Lock, AltGr and other operating-system layouts are not inferred. Unrecognized characters stay unchanged; review the result before copying.
How does Auto-detect choose a direction?
It checks for Hebrew or lowercase English letters in the full text, or in the selected fragment. Hebrew letters convert to English; lowercase English letters convert to Hebrew. Capital letters are neutral because the Hebrew Shift layer also produces them. If both scripts appear in the checked text, or no directional letters are present, nothing changes and you can choose a direction yourself.
What if a message mixes Hebrew and English?
Select the Hebrew or English-layout fragment you want to fix, then use Auto-detect or choose a direction. Text outside the selection stays unchanged. With no selection, Auto-detect leaves a mixed-script message unchanged.
