Qtaish et al

+

+ Qtaish et al presented this layout in + An Improved Arabic Keyboard Layout in 2021. + + They use a novel corpus of 5 million words or roughly 66 million letters + consisting of + newspapers, (now defunct) social networks and blogs, as well as six + dictionaries (see remarks). + + Then letters were classified into three categories based on their + frequency, which apparently were used to populate home, top and bottom + row (in this order). + + Additionally bigrams were somehow used to arrange letters and avoid + placing them on the same or adjacent fingers, making rolling finger + movements incentiviced by carpalx impossible. + + Ultimately it looks like the layout was designed by hand and not through + an automated process. +

+ +
+ + Alfarahindi and Alein Dictionary are most likely the same 8th century book Kitab al-'Ayn. + + There are also Taj-Alaroos, Lesan Alarab, Almujam Alwaseet and Almunjed. + + All of them are lexica, not dictionaries. +
+ +

+ Although the authors do not provide a number row, it has been added for + fair comparison. + + However to be actually usable the layout would need punctuation symbols and diacritics. +
