Short message without an IME
You are on a shared laptop that only has a US English layout.
Sample
Layout: Amharic → type a greeting → Copy → paste into chat
What you get
Ethiopic syllables appear in the text box and copy as normal Unicode.
Online Virtual Keyboard
Need a character that is not on your hardware keyboard? This page is a single, privacy-first on-screen keyboard with switchable layouts for Arabic, Chinese, Japanese, Korean, Russian, Hindi, Amharic, Burmese, Sinhala, and many other scripts — plus emoji. Pick a layout, click keys to build text in the box, then copy and paste into chat, forms, or documents. Nothing is uploaded; typing stays on your device. It is meant for short messages and lookup when you cannot install a full system IME, not as a replacement for professional input methods for daily writing.

Example

What you get
Useful for short text; for full sentences prefer a system Chinese IME.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is this a full system input method (IME)?
No. It is a compact browser keypad for short text and character lookup. For predictive input and system-wide typing, enable the language in your OS settings.
Is my typed text sent to a server?
No. Typing happens only on this page in your browser. Nothing is uploaded unless you copy and paste the text elsewhere yourself.
Why is there one keyboard page instead of many language URLs?
One tool with a layout switcher is easier to maintain and clearer for users. Every script still has a dedicated keypad; you pick it from the menu instead of opening a separate near-identical page.
Which scripts are included?
Layouts cover Arabic, Chinese, Japanese, Korean, Russian, Hindi, Urdu, Persian, Hebrew, Thai, Greek, Bengali, Amharic, Armenian, Georgian, Tamil, Telugu, Kannada, Malayalam, Burmese, Khmer, Lao, Sinhala, Tibetan, Cherokee, Inuktitut, and emoji.
