Hinglish

Description

Hi there This is an excellent keyboard and the Voice to Text feature is the best I have come across.

An improvement I would like to see is the addition of the "Hinglish" language dictionary. Hinglish is basically the language Hindi, written using English alphabets. This is a fairly common way to communicate in the Indian subcontinent.

Other keyboards, like Gboard and SwiftKey, also support the Hinglish dictionary, which would be a welcome addition to this already excellent keyboard.

The dictionary file is available in this repo - https://codeberg.org/Helium314/aosp-dictionaries

Thank you

Complexity

The task of adding the dictionary itself should be minor since it uses the existing English QWERTY layout, and the dictionaries are readily available at https://codeberg.org/Helium314/aosp-dictionaries. Look for Hinglish dictionary in the README
