Going Beyond English: DrillBit’s Support for Indian Regional Languages
India isn’t just a country—it’s a civilization of cultures, scripts, and stories, home to dozens of major languages and hundreds of dialects. From the Hindi heartland to the coastal shores of Kerala, language isn’t just a tool here—it’s identity.
In this beautifully diverse landscape, DrillBit rises to the challenge. While most plagiarism tools focus solely on English or global languages, DrillBit proudly supports Indian regional languages, ensuring that no voice—no matter the script—is left behind.
Whether you’re a student in Tamil Nadu, a researcher in West Bengal, or at a university in Gujarat, DrillBit understands your language, your content, and your academic values.
Why Language Support Matters
All of the plagiarism detection tools available for scholars are optimised for English—but in India, that’s not enough. With over 20 official languages and hundreds of dialects, academic integrity must be safeguarded in regional scripts too.
That’s why DrillBit classifies documents before scanning into three major language categories:
• English
• Non-English (Global languages like French, Spanish, etc.)
• Regional (Indian languages)
This blog focuses on the Regional category—helping Indian users understand which languages are supported and how to use the feature effectively.
Why Regional Language Support Matters in India
• Thousands of Indian students write in their mother tongue, especially at state universities.
• In India Thesis, Research paper, Synopsis, and Assignments are often submitted in non-English languages.
• India has 22 officially recognized languages under the Constitution, with many more used academically and professionally.
DrillBit’s advanced engine doesn’t just “translate” text—it recognizes and compares it contextually using localized databases, character sets, and grammar structures.
