About the Turkish keyboard
Turkish uses a 29-letter Latin alphabet with six special letters: ç, ğ (yumuşak g), ı (dotless i), ö, ş and ü. Dotted i and dotless ı are separate letters with separate capitals (i/İ and ı/I).
Turkish Q: The Turkish Q layout: ğ ü next to P, ş i next to L, ö ç next to M, and dotless ı on the I key.
Accent shortcuts: Keep your normal keyboard and add accents with a symbol after the letter: e' → é, n~ → ñ, u" → ü. See the cheat sheet below.

Tips for typing Turkish
Watch the dots: sınıf (class) uses ı, while şehir uses i.
İstanbul starts with a dotted capital İ.
ğ never starts a word; it lengthens the vowel before it (dağ, yağmur).
₺ is the Turkish lira sign, in the quick buttons.
