About Ukrainian keyboard converter
Many people in Ukraine switch between three layouts, Ukrainian, English and often Russian, and each switch can go wrong in two ways. This page handles both. Type Ukrainian with English on and you get ghbdsn instead of привіт; type it with the Russian layout on and you get Привыт, because і, ї and є sit where Russian has ы, ъ and э.
It opens with English (US) to Ukrainian (Enhanced), the layout Windows installs for Ukraine, and leans to Ukrainian when a short word could also be Russian: ghbdsn reads as привіт here, while the general converter would offer привыт. Cyrillic that reads better as Ukrainian keys is spotted too, so Привыт як справи turns into Привіт як справи without touching the menus.
On the Enhanced layout the apostrophe is on the key left of 1, so an English ` becomes ' in words like м'ята, and ґ is on the extra key beside the left Shift. The older Windows layout called simply Ukrainian, with ё on the key left of 1, is not listed; apart from that one key its letters sit in the same places, so the result is the same for everything else.
Going the other way, руддщ цщкдв typed with Ukrainian on becomes hello world, and a message where only some words slipped can be repaired word by word with the switch below the text. Nothing is translated along the way: surzhyk, names and typos stay exactly as they were typed.
