Lao Keyboard Online – About This Keyboard

Lao is a Kra-Dai language spoken by about 30 million people in Laos and Thailand. It uses the Lao script, derived from ancient Khmer, with distinctive curved letters and tone marks.

Lao Keyboard uses left-to-right writing. The Rapid layout places vowels and tone marks on the home row for faster typing compared to the STEA layout.

Use this virtual Lao keyboard online to write Lao on any device, even if your physical keyboard does not support it.

Click the keys or type on your physical keyboard. Text appears in the text box above. Use the Copy, Save, or Search buttons to export or look up your text.

Frequently Asked Questions

How can I type Lao Rapid online without installing software?

Open Lao Keyboard Online in any modern browser; the Rapid layout loads instantly so Lao letters, tone marks, and numerals follow familiar positions.

Are tone marks and vowels on the home row in this layout?

Yes. Rapid places vowels and tone marks directly under your fingertips, so you can finish syllables or add tones without reaching for side palettes.

Can I copy, save, or share my Lao Rapid text?

Use the Copy button for the clipboard, Save (.txt) for clean UTF-8 output, and Google/YouTube shortcuts to research vocabulary without leaving the keyboard.

Does Lao Keyboard Online work on phones or low bandwidth?

Responsive touch targets and cached assets keep the layout smooth on phones, tablets, and weak Wi-Fi so you can keep typing during travel.

Will my layout or theme preferences be remembered?

Only harmless settings—layout selection, toolbar state, dark or light mode—are stored locally, so the editor reopens ready to type while your text stays private.

Can I switch between Lao Rapid, Lao STEA, and English quickly?

Yes. Use the Layout dropdown to jump between Lao Rapid, Lao STEA, Thai, or English keyboards with one click for bilingual projects.
