# Kurdish Keyboard Layouts
This repository contains source files of keyboard layouts for typing Kurdish language.

## Central Kurdish (Iran) keyboard layout for Windows
### Features
- Shift is not needed for Central Kurdish letters
- Layout is based on common Persian keyboard layout
- All characters of Southern and Hewrami Kurdish, Persian, and Arabic languages can be typed without changing the language.

### Characters
- Standard Central Kurdish alphabet: **ئ ء ا ب پ ت ج چ ح خ د ر ڕ ز ژ س ش ع غ ف ڤ ق ک گ ل ڵ م ن و ۆ ه ە ی ێ**
- Note: Although the character "**ھ** `ARABIC LETTER HEH DOACHASHMEE (U+06BE)`" is the correct representation of Kurdish /h/ consonant,
we use the "**ه** `ARABIC LETTER HEH (U+0647)`" character as the [KRG Department of Information Technology's Standard](http://unicode.ekrg.org/ku_unicodes.html) shows.
- Other dialects of Kurdish:
- Southern: **ۊ** [[y](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Close_front_rounded_vowel)] **ݩ** [[ŋ](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Voiced_velar_nasal)]
- Hewrami: **ڎ ۉ**
- Punctuation marks: **/ ؟ . ، ؛ : - " « » ( ) [ ] { } < >**
- Math: Arabic digits (**1234567890**), Arabic-Indic digits (**١٢٣٤٥٦٧٨٩٠**), and **٫ ٬ % ÷ ×**
- Persian/Arabic: letters **آ أ إ ث ذ ص ض ط ظ ك ؤ ة ي ى** and diacritics **ــَـِـُـّـْ ـًـٍـٌ**

### How to install?
