This module will transliterate text in the Ol Chiki script. It is used to transliterate Santali. The module should preferably not be called directly from templates or other modules. To use it from a template, use {{xlit}}. Within a module, use Module:languages#Language:transliterate.

For testcases, see Module:Olck-translit/testcases.

Functions
