Good news everyone,

You don't need to install a Yoruba keyboard to create tone marked Yoruba documents anymore. There's a new tool that will help you disintegrate the tone marking process from the content creation process in a very seamless way.

The website http://yorubaintonation.somee.com exists to make the process of adding intonation to your Yoruba text very easy. The advantage of using the tone marking tool over the more commonplace approach of typing with special Yoruba keyboard is that your writing process is not hindered by the tone marking process which can be pretty mentally tasking. Also, you can add tone marks to your Yoruba from any device, be it phone or laptop; as long as you have a device that can access the internet through a web browser. No installations required.

Just type your Yoruba text using regular keyboard characters when you're feeling creative and then, do (or even delegate) the bulk intonation later with the help of the Yoruba tone marking tool at http://yorubaintonation.somee.com.

It just occurred to me that Nairaland doesn't have a "Like" button!

I just liked your post. I wonder why you could not like mine. And you were signed in?

It's a Like link, just at the bottom of each post.
