The indic-num2words module converts numerical digits like 36 into words like छत्तीस in various Indian languages.

To install the latest stable release from PyPI:

pip install indic-num2words

The module provides a single function for converting numbers to words:

from num_to_words import num_to_word

# Examples:
print(num_to_word(36, lang='hi'))  # Output: छत्तीस
print(num_to_word('४५', lang='hi'))  # Output: पैंतालीस
print(num_to_word("35,43,57,730", lang='hi'))  # Output: पैंतीसकरोड़ तैंतालीसलाख सत्तावनहज़ार सातसौ तीस
print(num_to_word(795, lang='kn', separator='-'))  # Output: ಏಳುನೂರ-ತೊಂಬತ್ತೈದು
print(num_to_word(545589, lang='en', separator=', ', combiner='-'))  # Output: five-lakh, forty-five-thousand, five-hundred, eighty-nine
