Agreed. I type almost exclusively in English on a non-English keyboard.
- permo-w 5y agoyeah but I’d imagine it’s not a Russian keyboard. Russian characters look like йуукенгшщзхфывапролджэячсмитьбю. You’d have a hard time writing in English using them
- docdeek 5y agoCorrect - the number of specific characters different to standard English is minimal, nothing like a Russian keyboard.
- blowski 5y agoIs it not common in Russia then? I had a Russian housemate in London who exclusively used an English keyboard because he liked that model and it wasn't available in Cyrillic. He gave me the impression that a lot of people in Russia used English keyboards. But then he was an English-speaking programmer, and not representative of the "average Russian".
- permo-w 5y agoThe impression i get is that you can write Russian in Roman text, and most Russians will understand you, but if you write English with Russian characters, very few people will understand you
