Frequently Asked Questions

What is an online Odia keyboard and who needs one?

An online Odia keyboard (also called Oriya keyboard) is a virtual keyboard that displays Odia letters on your screen, allowing you to type in Odia without installing any software. It's essential for the 35+ million Odia speakers, especially those living outside Odisha. Students, expats, and anyone communicating with Odisha benefit from instant Odia typing access.

Is it called Odia or Oriya?

Both names refer to the same language! 'Oriya' was the older English spelling, while 'Odia' is the official spelling adopted by the Government of India in 2011 to better reflect the local pronunciation. Our keyboard supports the language regardless of what you call it!

How do I type Odia conjuncts?

Odia conjuncts combine consonants. Type the first consonant, press the halant (୍) key, then type the second consonant. For example: କ + ୍ + ଷ = କ୍ଷ, ତ + ୍ + ତ = ତ୍ତ. Our keyboard handles all standard Odia conjuncts correctly.
