"Indian culture is diverse, with more than 100 languages and thousands of alphabets used every day. Depending on where you are, you might hear anything from Gujarati to Bengali and Tamil to Urdu. If you're a speaker of these languages and use a feature phone, communicating is about to get a little easier, said Ian Hill, Project Manager, Google Localization on Google's offical Blog.

 Users can simply go to the settings in Gmail and choose their language of choice.

Some 500 million new users from around the world will join the Internet between now and 2015. Since most will experience the web for the first time on a mobile device, it's important that people everywhere can communicate in the language they know best, adds Ian.
