Frequently Asked Questions

What is an online Telugu keyboard and who needs one?

An online Telugu keyboard (తెలుగు కీబోర్డ్) is a virtual keyboard that displays Telugu letters on your screen, allowing you to type in Telugu without installing any software. It's essential for the 82+ million Telugu speakers worldwide, especially in the USA, UAE, and other diaspora communities. IT professionals from Hyderabad, students, and anyone communicating with Telugu speakers benefit from instant Telugu typing access.

How do I type Telugu conjuncts (vottulu)?

Telugu conjunct consonants (వొత్తులు) are formed by combining two or more consonants. Type the first consonant, then press the virama (్) key, then type the second consonant. For example: క + ్ + ర = క్ర, త + ్ + ర = త్ర, శ + ్ + ర = శ్ర. Our keyboard handles all standard Telugu conjuncts correctly, just like a physical InScript keyboard.

How do I add gunintalu (vowel signs) to Telugu consonants?

Gunintalu are vowel signs that modify consonants. After typing a consonant, type the corresponding vowel key: క + ా = కా (kaa), క + ి = కి (ki), క + ు = కు (ku), క + ే = కే (ke), క + ో = కో (ko). The InScript layout places vowels on the left side of the keyboard, making it easy to reach them.

What makes Telugu script beautiful?

Telugu script is renowned for its round, flowing letters – the name 'Telugu' itself is sometimes called 'Italian of the East' for its melodious sound. The script evolved from the Bhattiprolu script around 2000 years ago. Each letter has graceful curves, making Telugu calligraphy an art form. Our keyboard preserves this beauty while making it accessible digitally.

What are Telugu numerals?

Telugu has its own numerals: ౦ (0), ౧ (1), ౨ (2), ౩ (3), ౪ (4), ౫ (5), ౬ (6), ౭ (7), ౮ (8), ౯ (9). These are available on our keyboard via the number row. Both Telugu and Arabic numerals are commonly used in modern Telugu writing.
