Free Online Greek Extended Keyboard – Type Polytonic/Classical Greek
Welcome to the most comprehensive Polytonic Greek keyboard online (Ελληνικά)! Our free Extended keyboard gives you instant access to all polytonic Greek characters, including breathing marks (psili ᾿, dasia ῾), accents (tonos ΄), dialytika (¨), and iota subscripts, allowing you to type authentic Classical Greek from any device.
Why do scholars need a Polytonic Greek keyboard? Ancient Greek and Koine Greek used a polytonic orthography with multiple diacritical marks indicating pronunciation. This was used in Greek literature for over 2,000 years – from Homer to the Byzantine era. Modern Greek simplified to monotonic in 1982, but scholars, theologians, and classicists still need polytonic for ancient texts.
The Polytonic Greek system includes: smooth breathing (psili ᾿) and rough breathing (dasia ῾), acute accent (oxia ΄), grave accent (varia `), circumflex (perispomeni ~), iota subscript (ᾳ, ῃ, ῳ), and dialytika (¨). Our keyboard makes typing all of these easy!
Perfect for: Classical Greek scholars, biblical studies (Koine Greek New Testament, Septuagint), Byzantine studies, Orthodox liturgy, Homeric epic studies, Greek philosophy texts, and anyone studying ancient Greek literature.
Your privacy is guaranteed – all typing happens 100% locally in your browser. Nothing is ever sent to any server. Your Greek text stays on your device only.
