Some public computers (such as in libraries) will not allow users to change the keyboard to the Dvorak layout. Although DSK is implemented in many [ citation needed] languages other than English, there are still potential issues. Every Dvorak implementation for other languages has the same difficulties as for Roman characters. However, other (occidental) language orthographies can have other typing needs for optimization (many are very different from English). Because Dvorak was optimized for the statistical distribution of letters of English text, keyboards for other languages would likely have different distributions of letter frequencies. Hence, non-QWERTY-derived keyboards for such languages would need a keyboard layout that might be quite different from the Dvorak layout for English.

Mechanical Keys: This keyboard uses linear mechanical keys. An excellent investment for those who type daily and gamers. The keys require little force to press, which makes it easier on your fingers and hands.

For maximum speed and efficiency, the most common letters and bigrams should be typed on the home row, where the fingers rest, and under the strongest fingers. (About 70% of letter keyboard strokes on Dvorak are done on the home row and only 22% and 8% on the top and bottom rows respectively.)

However, this benefit dwindles for longer words, because one English syllable can contain numerous consonants (as in "schmaltz" or "strengths"). [38] Standard keyboard [ edit ] On a QWERTY keyboard, there are nine letters (A, S, D, F, G, H, J, K, and L) on the home row. On a Dvorak keyboard, there are ten letters A, O, E, U, I, D, H, T, N, and S on the home row. How many total keys are on the keyboard home row keys The traditional method for touch typing requires typists to rest their fingers in home position (on QWERTY, the " ASDF" and " JKL;" keys). The row containing said keys is called the home row. The more strokes there are in the home row, the less movement the fingers must do, thus allowing a typist to type faster, more accurately, and with less strain to the hand and fingers. Hanno Behrens.

The QWERTY layout has more than 3,000 words that are typed on the left hand alone and about 300 words that are typed on the right hand alone (the aforementioned word "minimum" is a right-hand-only word). In contrast, with the Dvorak layout, only a few words are typed using only the left hand and even fewer use the right hand alone. [30] [ unreliable source?] This is because most syllables require at least one vowel, and, in a Dvorak layout, all the vowels (and "y") fall on the left side of the keyboard. Diagram of English letter frequencies on QWERTY (top) and Dvorak (bottom); darker shade indicates higher rate of occurrence. Placing your fingers on the home row keys helps increase your typing speed because it allows easy access to all other keys surrounding those fingers. Faster typing relies on each finger pressing specific keys that are nearby, without having to move your whole hand or other fingers and ideally without looking at the keyboard. Most keyboards are based on QWERTY layouts, despite the availability of other keyboard layouts, including the Dvorak. The Turkish F keyboard layout ( link in Turkish) is also an original design with Dvorak's design principles, however it's not clear if it is inspired by Dvorak or not. Turkish F keyboard was standardized in 1955 and the design has been a requirement for imported typewriters since 1963.

Modern U.S. Dvorak layouts almost always place ; and : together on a single key, and / and ? together on a single key. Thus, if the keycaps of a modern keyboard are rearranged so that the unshifted symbol characters match the classic Dvorak layout then the result is the ANSI Dvorak layout. The layout was completed in 1932 and granted U.S. Patent 2,040,248 in 1936. [12] The American National Standards Institute (ANSI) designated the Dvorak keyboard as an alternative standard keyboard layout in 1982 (INCITS 207-1991 R2007; previously X4.22-1983, X3.207:1991), [13] "Alternate Keyboard Arrangement for Alphanumeric Machines". The original ANSI Dvorak layout was available as a factory-supplied option on the original IBM Selectric typewriter. [ specify] History [ edit ]
