Bhashamoli comes from bhasha and moli, which both mean "language".
In Sri Lanka, a lot of Tamil and Sinhala work still happens in Bamini and FM fonts: printers, typesetters, old exam papers and office files. When that text needs to go online, or online text needs to go to a printer, people often end up typing it all again. This site does the conversion so you don't have to.
The converters work right in your browser, so the text you paste isn't sent anywhere. It's free to use.
