Hebrew keyboard

Okay kiddo, so you know how we have a keyboard on our computer or phone to type words and sentences? Well, some people speak different languages and need a special kind of keyboard to type in their language.

The Hebrew language has its own special alphabet with different letters and symbols than the ones we use in English. So, to type in Hebrew, people need a Hebrew keyboard.

A Hebrew keyboard looks different than the one we're used to seeing. The letters on the keys are in Hebrew, and there are some extra keys for special symbols and punctuation marks.

When someone wants to type in Hebrew, they first have to switch their keyboard from English to Hebrew. This is usually done by clicking on a little icon on the computer or phone screen that looks like a small country flag. Then they can type words and sentences just like we do in English, but using the Hebrew letters and symbols.

So, that's basically what a Hebrew keyboard is and why someone might need it. It's a special tool for typing in a different language with its own unique alphabet.
