Help:Extension:UniversalLanguageSelector/Input methods/vai-transliteration/de

It's possible to type in the Vai alphabet without installing any software or changing any system configuration.

This layout is based on the transliteration layout made by KeyMan, with some corrections and extensions. It is supposed to work on desktop and laptop computers, in all modern browsers with JavaScript enabled. These instructions are not intended for mobile phones and tables; on mobile devices, Vai is supported by the Gboard app.

Note that if squares or question marks appear instead of Vai letters, your system lacks a Vai font, and you must install one.

Geh wie gefolgt vor, um das Layout zu aktivieren:


 * 1) Klicke das Suchfeld oben in der Seite.
 * 2) Klicke auf das kleine Tastatursymbol, das in der Nähe des Suchfelds erscheint.
 * 3) * If the little keyboard icon doesn't appear, do the following: Click the gear icon near the "Languages" list in the sidebar, click "Input", click "Enable input tools", and click "Apply settings".
 * 4) If "ꕙꔤ" appears at the top of the list, select "Vai transliteration".
 * 5) If "ꕙꔤ" doesn't appear at the top of the list, do the following:
 * 6) Klicke "..." am Ende der Liste. Ein Menü wird erscheinen.
 * 7) Find "ꕙꔤ" in the panel. Click it.
 * 8) Click the little keyboard icon again, and select "Vai transliteration".

To disable this special keyboard and go back to type usually, click the little keyboard icon and then click "Use native keyboard", or press Ctrl-M. To re-enable the keyboard, press Ctrl-M, or repeat the steps above.

To type every syllable, follow the instructions in the table below. If a syllable is just a vowel, type e, i, a, o, u, x, q. For syllables that begin with a consonant, type the consonant and then the vowel. If the syllable is nasalized, type a tilde (~) in the end. See the table in the end of the document for instructions for typing the special characters ꘋ, ꘌ, ꘍, ꘎, ꘏, ꘓ, ꘘ.

Other
Anmerkungen:
 * ꘋ kann auch mit X getippt werden.
 * The vowels ꖺ (Ɔ) and ꗡ (Ɛ) can be typed using x and q, and also using capital O and E. So typing "gbq" is equivalent to typing "gbE", and both produce the Vai character ꗯ.
 * "dl" is equivalent to "D". So typing "dla" is equivalent to typing "Da", and both produce the Vai character ꕠ.
