Keyboard Greek online

The layout at a glance

This Greek virtual keyboard mirrors the layout used on physical Greek keyboards, whose top row begins with ΣΕΡΤΥΘ. Its 47 character keys reach the 25 letters of the Greek script (U+0370–U+03FF) straight from the browser, with nothing to install.

The layout reaches 28 characters that an ordinary Latin keyboard does not carry: ¨ ΄ ΅ α β γ δ ε ζ η θ ι κ λ μ ν ξ ο π ρ ς σ τ υ φ χ ψ ω.

How to type in Greek

  1. Click the on-screen keys or type on your physical keyboard — both write into the same text area.
  2. Shift shows the second layer of every key: capitals and the characters printed at the top right.
  3. The Copy button puts the whole text on the clipboard, ready to paste into an email, a document or a form.
  4. The Google, YouTube and ChatGPT buttons run a search with the text you typed, without retyping it.

Key reference table

Each row is one physical key: the base character, the one produced with Shift, then the one produced with AltGr.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I type Greek letters?

Click the Greek letters on the virtual keyboard. The Greek alphabet has 24 letters.

What is the Greek keyboard layout?

The standard Greek layout maps letters onto QWERTY positions by sound and shape (for example α on the A key, β on the B key).

How do I type accented vowels (ά, έ, ή, ί, ό, ύ, ώ)?

Use the tonos dead key (the ; key on a Greek layout) followed by the vowel, or the dedicated combinations.

How do I type the dialytika (ϊ, ϋ) and combined marks (ΐ, ΰ)?

The dialytika (diaeresis) is entered with a dead key. Combined tonos-and-dialytika letters ΐ and ΰ are typed with the matching combination.

How do I type the final sigma (ς)?

The final sigma ς is used at the end of a word and has its own key (usually the W position), while σ is used elsewhere.

Can I type polytonic (Ancient) Greek?

The standard keyboard is monotonic. Ancient/polytonic Greek needs a polytonic layout for breathings and multiple accents.
