Computer implemented techniques for performing transliteration of input text in a first character set to a second character set are disclosed. The techniques include receiving input text and determining a set of possible transliterations of the input text based on a plurality of mapping standards. Each mapping standard defines a mapping of characters in the first character set to characters in the second character set. The techniques further include determining a set of candidate words in the target language based on the possible transliterations and a text corpus. The techniques also include determining a likelihood score for each one of the candidate words based on a language model in the target language previously received words. The techniques also include providing one or more candidate words based on the likelihood scores and receiving a user selection indicating one of the candidate words.
