If you are trying to search the web using a language other than English and you don't have the correct keyboard handy, well, there's bound to be a problem. Google has come up with a solution by integrating virtual keyboards into its search engine. Now up and running in 35 languages, the on-screen keyboards allow input in a local language script without any additional software and no matter what computer you are using.

The on-screen keyboards are accessed via a small keyboard icon beside the search bar and appear automatically in any of the languages to which the function is attached. Search terms can be entered using on-screen input or by hitting the corresponding keys on your real keyboard.

The current 35 languages (from Albanian to Uzbek) include non-Latin scripts and languages where just a few letters differ from English... like the ö in Eyjafjallajökull.

The move follows the launch of a virtual keyboard API for developers last year and Google says it will expand the function based on feedback from users. If your language isn't yet covered, you can LINK" target="_blank">vote for its inclusion.
