tDifferent languages may have different keyboard layouts. For example, American English uses a 
QWERTY keyboard layout, but French uses an AZERTY keyboard layout. Some keys appear in 
locations that you may not be used to.
tSimilar languages may have slightly different keyboard layouts. For example, many languages use a 
QWERTY keyboard layout. However, Danish, Spanish, and Romanian include different characters on 
the basic keyboard that arenht on other QWERTY keyboard layouts.

one of these languages from a left-to-right language in the middle of a sentence, your device 
automatically places the characters you type on the left side of the cursor. When you change back to 
the left-to-right language, you need to move your cursor back to the right side of the text.
