Khmer iOS keyboards

Post by Freightdog »

One for those who know the language

I’m currently using Phum keyboard, and previously had KhmerSmartkeyboard, I think it was called.
Occasionally, I’m running into problems getting the right ‘form’ of a particular consonant, if that makes sense.

Eg. Assuming I’m spelling it correctly.
ផ្សារ

I can only type
ផសារ

So, a couple or three questions spring to mind.
1. Does it matter? I’m sure it does.
2. Do you know what I’m doing wrong?
3. Other alternatives.


PS. Hopefully that all makes sense

Market?
Some unicode simply won’t let you type the correct word/symbol if you’re using the right consonant and vowels. No matter how many times you do it it changes!

You need to find a different keyboard codes.
Don’t listen to Chinese whispers.

As often the case, asking the question (even of yourself) gets the mind working on it.

After some trial and error
This little character ្ seems to work like a shift key

Yeah, that's the subscript key.
All Khmer keyboards should have it
