Most text-to-speech tools handle this badly in one of two ways. English engines read the Hindi words as though they were English, so "chalo" becomes "chah-loh". Hindi engines trained only on Devanagari drop the Latin-script words entirely — and because the failure is silent, you only notice when you play the file back and a word is missing.
Mayantar treats Hinglish as its own language option with its own preprocessing path, separate from both Hindi and English. That is the whole reason it exists as a third entry in the language list rather than being folded into Hindi.

What is different about generating Hinglish
- Roman-script Indian-language text and English words mixed into an Indian-language script are normalised before generation. Without that step, models trained only on native-script audio tend to skip Latin-script words silently rather than pronounce them.
- Because Hinglish routes through the Indian-language model, its reference clips share Hindi's 12-second cap.
- Record your reference clip in Hinglish if you intend to generate Hinglish. A reference clip in a different language measurably degrades output quality, so a clean English clip is a worse starting point for Hinglish than a slightly noisier Hinglish one.
Reference scripts to read in Hinglish
These are the exact prompts Mayantar shows you in the recorder. Each one is timed to land inside the 12-second limit at a natural pace, and each covers something cloning models need: relaxed conversational prosody, spoken digits and dates, and a question with rising intonation. Read one aloud in a quiet room and you have a usable reference clip.
- Hello dosto, yeh meri awaaz hai aur main aaj ek chhota sa sample record kar raha hoon. Mujhe music sunna pasand hai.
- Chalo thode numbers bolte hain: 1, 2, 3, 4 aur 5. Meri meeting subah 9:30 baje, 15 March ko hai.
- Kya aapne kabhi socha hai ki ek simple recording kisi ki awaaz ko kaise capture kar leti hai? Mujhe yeh kaafi interesting lagta hai.

Hinglish voice generation: common questions
What is Hinglish text to speech?
It is speech synthesis for code-mixed Hindi-English text written in Roman script. The engine has to recognise that "kal" is a Hindi word and "deadline" is an English one inside the same sentence, and pronounce each the way an Indian speaker would.
Should I choose Hindi or Hinglish?
Choose by script, not by content. If your text is in Devanagari, choose Hindi. If it is in Roman letters — even if it is almost entirely Hindi words — choose Hinglish.
Does Hinglish work with a cloned voice?
Yes. Clone from a Hinglish reference clip and generate Hinglish scripts in your own voice. Both cloning and Hinglish generation need a paid plan — the free tier generates English only, with preset voices.
