A Guide to the Myanmar (Burmese)/English Phonetic Virtual Keyboard

Welcome to the free Myanmar Online Keyboard by Dozro! (Phonetic QWERTY) This guide will walk you through all the features of our dual-language virtual keyboard, designed to make both Myanmar typing and English composition simple and intuitive. This keyboard uses a phonetic QWERTY layout, which means the Burmese keys are mapped to the sounds of their English counterparts. This is a complete မြန်မာကီးဘုတ် (Myanmar keyboard) solution for all your needs. It features voice typing (Speech-to-Text) and emoji symbols. If you're looking to type Myanmar words using an English keyboard or write English words in Myanmar, this is the ideal solution for you. This bilingual Myanmar keyboard also provides translation for typed text between Myanmar and English. Myanmar characters on the virtual keyboard are aligned with the English letters of the physical QWERTY keyboard, allowing you to phonetically type on the virtual keyboard using your physical keys.

Core Features

• Phonetic QWERTY Layout: Type Burmese using a familiar QWERTY layout where keys correspond to English sounds.

• Dual Language Mode: Seamlessly switch between the Myanmar phonetic keyboard and a standard English QWERTY keyboard.

• English Sub-Labels: To make learning easier, each key on the Myanmar keyboard displays the corresponding QWERTY letter in the corner.

• Voice-to-Text: Use your microphone for hands-free dictation in both languages.

• Rich Symbol Sets: Access a wide range of diacritics, currency symbols, and common technical symbols using the Shift and AltGr keys.

How to Use the Phonetic Keyboard

Typing and Switching Languages

The keyboard defaults to the Myanmar layout. The layout is phonetic, meaning it follows the sound of the English keys.

• Phonetic Mapping Examples:

  • k -> က | Shift + k -> ခ

  • g -> ဂ | Shift + g -> ဃ

  • p -> ပ | Shift + p -> ဖ

  • b -> ဗ | Shift + b -> ဘ

• Vowel Formation: To add a vowel sign to a consonant, type the consonant first, then the vowel sign key. For example, to type ကာ, you press k (for က) and then a (for the ာ sign).

• Conjuncts & Stacked Consonants: To join two consonants, type the first consonant, then the Asat ( ် ) key, and then the second consonant. The Asat is on the f key. This is the standard မြန်မာစာရိုက်နည်း (how to type Myanmar) for creating conjuncts. For example, to type က္ခ, you press k f Shift+k.

To switch between Myanmar and English, click the Eng/မြန်မာ button.

Using Shift and Caps Lock

• Shift: Clicking the Shift key gives you access to a secondary layer of characters. In English mode, this produces uppercase letters. In Myanmar mode, this reveals aspirated consonants, full vowels, and essential diacritics. The Shift key deactivates after one use.

• Caps Lock: In English mode, click Caps Lock to type continuously in uppercase. The key will light up when active. Click it again to deactivate.

Special Characters: Shift and AltGr Keys

This phonetic keyboard is enhanced with powerful secondary layers for professional and daily use.

The Shift Key Layer

When the Myanmar keyboard is active, pressing the Shift key provides access to essential characters for proper writing.

  • ီ (Lone Gyi Tin San Khet): Vowel sign 'ii'.

  • ူ (Hna-chaing-lon): Vowel sign 'uu'.

  • ့ (Auk Myit): Tone mark.

• Currency Symbol: The Myanmar Kyat (K) symbol is available on the Shift layer (Shift + 4).

The AltGr Key Layer

The AltGr key unlocks a third layer of symbols on both the Myanmar and English keyboards. This layer is identical in both modes for consistency.

• Common Symbols: © (Copyright), ® (Registered), ™ (Trademark), ° (Degree), ¶ (Paragraph), † (Dagger), ‡ (Double Dagger), … (Ellipsis), ☰ (Menu/Trigram).

Important Note on Zawgyi Font

This keyboard is designed to work with Myanmar Unicode, which is the official and recommended standard for Burmese text. While you may have used Zawgyi-One in the past, it is a non-Unicode font and can cause compatibility issues. Using Myanmar Unicode ensures your text displays correctly across modern devices and applications.

Voice Typing and Other Tools

Voice Typing (Speech-to-Text)

1. Click the Microphone (🎤) button to start voice typing.

2. Your browser may ask for permission to use your microphone. Please click "Allow".

3. The status message will show "Listening..." Start speaking clearly in your selected language.

4. Your spoken words will be converted into text.

• Language Recognition: The speech-to-text engine is configured for specific dialects to improve accuracy.

  • Myanmar Mode: Uses language code my-MM for Myanmar (Burmese).

  • English Mode: Uses language code en-US for US English.

Auto Punctuation

• The Auto Punct. button helps you end sentences quickly. When activated, it will automatically add the appropriate punctuation mark (a period . for English or a danda ။ for Myanmar) and a space after you finish speaking with the voice typing feature.

• Note: if your microphone isn't working, please refer to this article for troubleshooting steps.

Other Tools

• Text Management: Use Undo, Redo, Copy, and Clear All to manage your text efficiently.

• Navigation: Use the arrow keys, Home, and End for precise cursor control.

• Emoji Keyboard (😀): Click the smiley face to access a full emoji panel for adding expressive characters to your text.

Translate Feature

The virtual keyboard features a handy Translate button that allows you to swiftly translate your typed text.

How it Works:

• Bilingual Text Translation: When the Myanmar keyboard is active, clicking the “Translate” button will convert text from Myanmar to English. Conversely, when the English keyboard is active, clicking “Translate” will convert text from English to Myanmar, using Google Translate.

• Steps:

1. Type or voice-type any text into the main text area.

2. Click or tap the Translate button.

3. If the text area is empty, a temporary message "Type text first!" will appear, and no new tab will open.

4. If there is text in the text area, a new browser tab will automatically open, redirecting you to Google Translate.

5. Your typed text will be pre-filled into Google Translate's input field.

6. Google Translate will automatically detect the source language of your text.

7. The translation will be displayed in the automatically selected target language (English if Myanmar keyboard was active, Myanmar if English keyboard was active).

Important Note for Mobile Users:

On mobile devices with the Google Translate app, clicking "Translate" might open the installed app instead of the web page, and it may not pre-fill your text. To work around this, click "Copy" first to save your text, then "Translate," and paste it in the app.

Physical Keyboard Synchronization

This virtual keyboard will synchronize with your physical keyboard. If you use the Shift or Caps Lock keys on your physical keyboard, the characters on the virtual keyboard will change accordingly. When you press an English letter on your physical keyboard, it will be converted into a Myanmar character when using the Myanmar virtual keyboard.

Responsive Design

This virtual keyboard is designed to adapt to various screen sizes:

• Desktop: You will see the full keyboard layout with all keys and labels. If your computer or laptop's physical keyboard isn't working, you can search for "Myanmar Keyboard Online Dozro" using a search engine and use it to type with your mouse or touch.

• Tablet: The layout will adjust slightly, and some English labels on Myanmar keys might be hidden to save space.

• Mobile: The layout becomes more compact, and some less-used keys (like Tab, Ctrl, Alt) are hidden to optimize for touch input. The action row and cursor row are also rearranged for better usability on smaller screens.

We hope this guide helps you make the most of your Myanmar/English Virtual Keyboard!
