Gboard: Did you know that most of the words in the vocabulary of an educated English speaker are loanwords from Greek? Hundreds of scientists, doctors and engineers terms έχουν ρίζα από τα ελληνικά. Παραδείγματα είναι: Physics, photography, microscope, telephone, biology, zoology – και αυτές οι λέξεις αποτελούν κομeye almost all European languages.
Σήμερα, παρουσιάζουμε σε όλους τους Έλληνες χρήστες που χρησιμοποιούν το ελληνικό πληκτρολόγιο αλλά και στους ενθουσιώδεις με την Ελληνική γλώσσα, την υποστήριξη των Greeklish στο Gboard, ένα πληκτρολόγιο της Google για την συσκευή σας. Το Gboard, σας παρέχει όλα όσα περιμένατε από ένα εξαιρετικό πληκτρολόγιο – GIFs, emojis and Glide Typing (drawing the word without lifting your finger) – with Google Search integrated.
The Greek alphabet, which consists of 24 letters, is one of the most fascinating alphabets, at least for me :) I remember that about 15 years ago, the only option I had in writing text messages was to use the Latin alphabet keyboard (abc-… ), as it was difficult to enter characters in Greek
(a B C-…). As a result, Greek keyboard users, like me, have become accustomed to typing Greek words on a Latin keyboard - a way of writing known as "Greeklish".
You can try it by following these steps:
1. First, select the “Greek (abc -> Greek)” keyboard from the menu of Gboard on your Android device.
2. Open one application which allows you to type and then tap once or long press the icon to select the “Greek (abc -> Greek)” keyboard.
3. Once the model comes down, you'll be ready to start using the new keyboard! You can type in either Glide (by drawing the word without lifting your finger).
Tap
glide
We believe this new keyboard will help users continue to write in the Greek language, keeping our culture and language in the digital world.
Gbox for Android is renewed at regular intervals with support for new languages and tools, as we work to achieve our vision of creating clever mechanisms for faster text input, automatic completion and predicting words on mobile phones - in whatever language you choose.
