  • Turn on NiDA in the toolbar to type Khmer on any QWERTY keyboard, with no Khmer keyboard installed. The keys match the chart below.
  • Subscript consonants: press J (the coeng, ្), then the consonant. For example K J R types ក្រ.
  • Alt Gr (⌥ on Mac) opens a third NiDA layer with rare signs and symbols. None of the practice words need it.
