# from_charset

`from_charset` is used to transcode a string from a given charset to the
internal charset. This is the exact opposite of the [to_charset
modifier](language-modifier-to-charset.md).

## Parameters

> Charset encoding should be handled by the application itself. This
> modifier should only be used in cases where the application cannot
> anticipate that a certain string is required in another encoding.
