Europa scheint durch die Technologie vereint zu sein, aber selbst Tastaturen offenbaren kulturelle Unterschiede.
Während die meisten Länder das bekannte QWERTY-Layout verwenden, verwenden Frankreich und das französischsprachige Belgien AZERTY, und ein Großteil Mittel- und Südosteuropas verlässt sich auf QWERTZ. Die Türkei hat sogar eine eigene „F-Tastatur“ entwickelt, die speziell für die türkische Sprache entwickelt wurde.

Do the French and Italian Swiss use the German „qwertz“?
That’s why I use a Canadian keyboard when typing in French
I don’t know many Belgians who don’t use Azerty
I am Turkish and I have no idea what fgğiod is
Nobody in Turkey uses the F keyboard
Everyone in Belgium uses Azerty, I’m probably one of maybe a 100 people that use Qwerty by choice.
*for latin script
QWERTY in Italy is only for modern day computer keyboards. My very old typewriter has QZERTY on it, which was the standard, but forgotten, Italian layout.
I despise QWERTZ and the Czech keyboard layout in general with a passion.
Qwertz is the most German sounding thing ever. No wonder its popular there.
incorrect for belgium
Idk why you are copyrighting it, since you keep posting low quality and usually inaccurate maps.
German here. For programming, I partly switch to the qwerty layout (the British/International one, not the ‚murrican one). It is fun /s.
F keyboard for Turkey was just tried for some period and nobody using nowadays
What about Greece?
F-keyboard in Turkey is only used by the government. Everyone else uses Q.
Czechia and Slovakia both use QWERTY and QWERTZ(but mostly QWERTZ)
Whoa turkiye can you say that?
The spanish layout is QWERTY but it is not like the english one. It has „ñ“, „ç“, tildes… I guess many countries will have same variations
Dutch speaking belgium also use azerty
Cmon don’t be pussies and actually show Eastern Europe with our йцукен
Everyone in Albania is using qwerty. Qwertz was stuck from first gen pc thst we received from Germany
QWERTY in Bulgaria too
I seen the Nordics using a modified querty like as Romanian.
Lets talk about Polish QWERTY and Nordic QWERTY.
These are only Latin script keyboard layout for Serbia it’s *quertz/љњертз.*
Poor Greeks , no layout for them
What’s the point of this if you’re not going to include the countries that use different alphabets?
Not all QWERTY are equal, for me the Spanish one is the one which allows me to write in the most languages.
turkish d keyboard is actually an optimized layout for Turkish language typing. It was scientifically designed around hand ergonomics, letter frequency etc. but today, it is not in use much.
The good old qwertz axis powers.
Excuse me Turkey, what did you call me?
Where are the Dvorak brothers and sisters?
Having to re-make all input controls on each video game that works in qwerty.. or pressing alt+shift
Who you calling a fggiod ?!
fgğiod keyboard was mandatory in Turkey since optimized for the Turkish language, since 70’s, you couldnt import a typewriter with any other keyboard layout for public sale.
When PC boom happened in the 2000’s, keyboards didnt technically count as typewriters under the customs law, so Turkey recieved a special Q layout with localized letters crammed in.
Government tried to fight back by making F layout mandatory in public institutions and schools, so now we have a dual system. If you learned to use a keyboard after 2013 in a government instutution, schools or in 70’s with a typewriter, you use F.
Everyone else uses Q.
Another day of thanking god for giving the Netherlands Qwerty
wait, I didn’t know south of Poland is a Qwertzland!
F keyboard was originally designed for typewriters. It is better then QWERTY because it is designed for Turkish. Government banned QWERTY typewriter imports. However, this ban didn’t include keyboards because there were no PCs at the time.
After PCs became a thing, companies sold PCs with QWERTY keyboards, producing F keyboard would have costed them money and time. General public used QWERTY and it became the most popular keyboard.
Government forced F keyboard on civil service. Afaik currently they don’t care much. If you can type fast on QWERTY, some jobs are fine. I checked if record clerk is forced to use F keyboard a few years ago. Don’t quote me on this.
I like how it puts all the vowels for the left hand.
I typed this on F keyboard on a touchscreen. Because why not?
There is also more niche E keyboard. It gets the name from start of middle row. I don’t know why scientific research purged ‚P‘ while Q, W and X chilling.
I feel QWERTY its not optimal for Portuguese, nor Spanish nor Italian.
