Corrections:
- Modern Polish typists use the programmer's keyboard as opposed to the standard one. A better example of a keyboard that uses separate keys for special characters is the Swedish keyboard[1].
- In the French AZERTY, the grave-accented a (à) has its own key (though the US International layout uses a dead key). A better example of a letter using a dead key on the AZERTY layout would be the circumflex-accented a (â) which is typed by pressing the '^' key followed by the 'a' key.
- On the Korean 3-set keyboard, the initial consonants are on the right and the final consonants are on the left.
- The Romaji for 今日は is usually "kyouha" in modern Japanese, meaning "today". "Konnichiwa" (or "konnichiha") is written with the Hiragana characters こんにちは.
- JIS stands for Japanese Industrial Standard, not Japanese International Standard.
Footnotes:
- Japanese writing contains a mixture of Hiragana, Katakana, and Kanji
- The Chinese Pinyin layout uses the English US keyboard, with tonal markings ignored and 'ü' substituted with either 'v' or 'u'
- All keyboard layouts fall under ANSI, ISO, or JIS which determines how many keys they have and general positioning (eg. English US is ANSI, English UK is ISO, Japanese Industrial Standard is JIS)

I don’t know about other languages but when using Chinese language input, the AI enhanced word prediction is an absolute godsend in the age of interwebs. For example, when you type “xiaoniao”, traditionally the first thing word prediction suggests is “小鸟” meaning “little bird”. But if you are on the interwebs a lot browsing memes and shit, you might be using the phrase “笑尿” (same pronunciation) a lot more, meaning “pissing (myself) laughing”. So when you manually select “笑” and “尿” a few times, the AI will remember your preference so that the next time you input “xiaoniao”, the phrase for “piss laughing” will replace “little bird” as first prediction. With hundreds of those enhanced predictions, the time it takes to write an essay in the comment section about why your favourite anime is dog shit is shorten by at least half.

I am impressed that Changjie (ChongKit) got mentioned!! It is usually overlooked when all Mandarin speakers use pinyin or 注音. I want to add that the way why traditional Chinese dictionary sort the words into strokes and radicals instead of phonetics is because Mandarin was not a well spread tongue back then. People speaks Hakka, Shanghainese, Hokkien, Teochew, etc. across the region. So using one's phonetics in a dictionary as reference will render it useless to other Chinese users who speaks differently.

I don't think this would work for languages that have pictogramas represented by the same sound, but for Russian one of my absolute favorite layouts is the phonetic layout. Basically all consonants are mapped to Latin equivalents, and if there isn't one it uses the shape of the letter, such as with x being ж (zh), since the russian х (h) is already being used for h. This also uses modifiers really intuitively, as for the letter я (ya), you use y+a or j+a. However, there are limitations because of the language itself; ы (ih/y), и (ee), and й (ending "y" like way) all sound similar, and a foreigner would use the letters i or y for them, but both i and y become modifiers. Similarly, "s" is very problematic, being the following: s+s or s+space = с (s), s+h = ш (sh), s+c+h = щ (sch), t+s or c+s = ц (ts). There are 2 non-pronounced letters in Russian, ь and ъ, which are usually translated as an apostrophe to show a change in pronunciation. For this reason, they are mapped to '/". This system works, however, since to say "a beautiful plaza", I would type krasivaya ploschad', and this would directly translate to красивая площадь, without me having to know any new layouts. This can be inconvenient, but it's the most intuitive layout I've ever seen because as long as you have Latin equivalents and specific phonemes rather than glyphs, it is by far the most convenient way to type any language, and it solves the problems of too many keys.

And since Hungarian keyboards are common (membrane keyboards not necessarily mechanical ones), people expect others to write using the proper diacritics. Even on phones, there is a clash between users who use diacritics and who skip the effort of long presses, because soft keyboards use a simplified QWERTZ layout.

@Liggliluff 2 жыл бұрын
Great video, and several good points. I've read some blog post complaining that some languages have additional letters, and that these letters should just be typed with dead-keys instead. I think that's a horrible idea, since you'll have to press two keys for one key. Even more annoying if you need to press shift for the dead key bot not the letter, or only pressing shift for the letter. I do still believe using Alt Gr for typing additional letters is a clever idea, since it's a key you hold, not a key you press in advance. It's still a combo key, but it's not much different from typing with Shift. I have a custom layout with Alt Gr for ´ letters, and then Å Ä Ö Ü for Swedish and German, and holding Alt Gr even gives me Hungarian Ő Ű. Easy to type with, but access to loads of languages without switching layout.

Regarding the unused Polish 214 keyboard - Turkish and Latvian actually have their own local layouts with dedicated keys for accented letters. Some polish people have actually pointed out how having buttons like q/v/x is pretty weird for writing in Polish (conventional shortcuts like cut/paste being by far the biggest use for them) and I've seen one or two proposed variants made, but those were mostly enthusiasts making things that never caught on and I REALLY had to dig through Google back when I was into keyboard layouts to find any of them. Nowhere near as well-documented as dvorak or the french BÉPO.

That's actually what the Serbian cyrillic keyboard did. Since it has more letters than the latin alphabet and no use for the W, Q and X keys it replaced them with Cyrillic letters and then replaced / : and some other keys with even more letters. The latin alphabet has a lot of digraphs so it only added letters without throwing out Q, X and W tho

adding to the commenter about latvian: everyone just uses the apostrophe key as a dead key to use the special letters. as they are all on a qwerty keyboard already, for example a -> ā, e -> ē, it makes much more sense to use a familiar and more internationally used layout.

2:48 Sometimes dead keys can be used to straight up modify the character itself instead of just adding a diacritic. For example: त + ्(Dead key) + र = त्र श + ् + र = श्र ज + ् + ञ = ज्ञ And you can also combine two characters using the dead key too ह + ् + ल = ह्ल ङ + ् + म = ङ्म

As a polish person, I have not seen anyone that uses the polish (214) layout, almost everyone uses the "programmers" layout here, even though it is less efficient if you just type in polish, its a lot less frustrating if you are typing in any other language, and particularly in english. And I think if you want to type fast on a layout with special letters, a split keyboard REALLY helps in my opinion. Thats because you are able to remap the very awkward to reach altgr key to your left or right space key since now you have two, and its basically just like pressing shift to make capitals, really not a huge speed penalty and more flexibility when not typing in polish.

for anyone wondering what 뷁 at 8:07 means, it is an internet meme / slang that doesn't really convey any meaning besides subtle negativity. It came from the English word 'break', which when correctly written in Hangul looks like '브레이크'. It became a meme when a singer sang the word 'break' too fast and sounded like 뷁 (pronounced 'bwek'). BTW, there are some legit Korean words with characters that has more than three letters. 삵 (leopard cat), 칡 (kudzu / arrowroot), 싫다 (to dislike), 밟다 (to step on) to name a few.

@Fink you shouldn't care about different languages. All you need to do is used scan codes. As he said in the video, all a keyboard sends is a scan code, which is independent of the layout. The keyboard itself doesn't even know the layout, it only cares about scan codes. ... so a game where you move with WASD, you shouldn't look for keys WASD, or adapt it to French ZQSD, or Dvorak ,AOE, because regardless of layout, these keys will always be 11 1E 1F 20. So to move forward, look for scan code 11, and then it doesn't matter if this is W, Z, Ц, ص, or anything else, because it will always be scan code 11.
