Frequently asked questions
Does Thai use Caps lock for capital letters?
Thai has no uppercase and lowercase distinction. Use Shift to reach the second set of characters; this page does not use Caps lock to change Thai letters.
Why do marks stack above a consonant?
Thai vowel and tone marks combine with a base character. The font places them around the consonant. Enter marks in the correct spelling order rather than arranging their visual positions yourself.
How do I type Thai digits?
Hold Shift to see digit positions on the top row and the Q position. Kedmanee places digits differently from a Latin number row, so follow the visible key labels.
