Direct typing with Shift and AltGr
This keyboard has no phonetic engine, and that is deliberate: Cyrillic spelling maps cleanly onto its own keys. Click a key — or press its physical counterpart with the hardware toggle on — and the exact character appears. Capitals and common variants live on Shift (46 characters), extended and rare forms on AltGr (0 characters).
Dead keys are enabled, so accents compose naturally: press the accent, then the vowel. On mobile, everything is tappable at full key size, and the editor keeps left to right ordering correct even when you mix Cyrillic with Latin words or digits in the same sentence.
Getting the most out of this keyboard
Cyrillic runs left to right, so mixing it with in-line Latin terms, brand names or URLs just works: the editor keeps each run in its own direction without manual markers.
For pronunciation, press the speaker button: the eve voice reads exactly what is in the editor, which makes this page a practical dictation and shadowing tool. Export the text first if you want to rehearse offline.
Preferred typefaces here are PT Serif, Noto Sans, PT Sans, Arial (fallback PT Sans). If a character shows as a box on your device, switch fonts in the toolbar — complex-script shaping varies between systems, especially on older phones.
Hidden characters tour
Beyond the base alphabet, this keyboard hides real value on its upper layers. On Shift: Ё ! " № ; % : ? * ( ) _ + Й Ц У К Е Н Г Ш Щ З Х …. On AltGr: . Hold the on-screen Shift or AltGr key (or your physical one in hardware mode) to reach them, exactly like a desktop layout.
Dictionaries and resources for Évène
Below the keyboard, the resource hub gathers 4 hand-picked links for Évène: 1 monolingual dictionary (including Lexilogos — index des dictionnaires), 1 bilingual translator, 0 grammar and conjugation reference, 1 vocabulary and phrase guide, and 1 encyclopedia, newspaper or general resource. Type a word in the editor first and the links marked with an arrow receive it automatically — look up a definition, a conjugation or a translation without retyping.
