Dzongkha, being the national language of Bhutan, is a common and widely spoken language in the country. Official documents, scriptures and other literature products are written in Dzongkha in order to retain the cultural value. However, documenting Dzongkha writing is a challenging and time-consuming process, largely due to the complexity of the script, the need for multiple keystrokes per syllable, and the limited availability of efficient typing tools. An immediate system that can predict and display a list of probable words for Dzongkha is the solution for this problem. The project is mainly aimed to make Dzongkha typing as convenient as possible by reducing the number of keystrokes. Our dataset is acquired from DCDD and has a total of 100000 sentences, 1331282 words and 28344 unique words. The data preprocessing was done by removing all the alphanumeric characters, tokenization, generating N-gram sequences and padding. Three models selected for training are LSTM, Bi-LSTM and GRU. The training process included fine-tuning of the model's hyperparameters. GRU being lightweight and able to handle larger datasets performed best with 74.03% accuracy and also solved the problem of overfitting.
