Slovak Keyboard Online

The layout at a glance

This Slovak virtual keyboard mirrors the QWERTZ layout of a physical Slovak keyboard. Its 48 character keys reach the 42 letters of the Latin script (U+0041–U+005A, U+0061–U+007A, U+00C0–U+024F) straight from the browser, with no software to install and no system setting to change.

The layout reaches 30 characters that an ordinary Latin keyboard does not carry: ¤ § ¨ ° ´ ¸ × ß á ä é í ô ÷ ú ý č đ ľ ł ň š ť ž ˇ ˘ ˙ ˛ ˝ €.

29 further characters come from the AltGr key (Alt on mobile): ~ ^ ˘ ˛ ` ˙ ˝ ¨ ¸ € ÷ × ¤ đ Đ [ ] ł Ł $ ß # & @ { } < > *.

How to type in Slovak

  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. AltGr (Alt on mobile) shows the third layer, the characters printed at the bottom right.
  4. The Copy button puts the whole text on the clipboard, ready to paste into an email, a document or a form.
  5. 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 Slovak special letters (á, č, ď, é, í, ľ, ň, ó, ô, š, ť, ú, ý, ž)?

The most common accented letters are on the number row, with the rest available through the acute and háček dead keys.

What is the Slovak QWERTZ layout?

The Slovak keyboard is QWERTZ-based, placing frequently used accented letters on the number row and dedicated keys.

How do I type letters with a caron (č, š, ž, ď, ť, ň, ľ)?

Use the háček (mäkčeň) dead key followed by the base letter, or press the dedicated keys for the common ones.

How do I type ô and ä?

The letters ô (o with circumflex) and ä have their own keys. They are distinctive Slovak vowels.

How do I type long vowels (á, é, í, ó, ú, ý, ĺ, ŕ)?

Use the acute (dĺžeň) dead key or the dedicated keys. Slovak even has long syllabic consonants ĺ and ŕ.

What is the difference between the Slovak and Czech keyboards?

Both are similar QWERTZ layouts. Slovak adds ä, ô, ĺ, ŕ and ľ, while Czech has ě, ř and ů.

How do I type numbers?

The number row gives letters (ľ š č ť ž ý á í é), so hold Shift to get 1 to 0.

How do I type ď, ť and ň?

Shift + the key left of Backspace gives the dead háček ˇ; then press d or t for ď or ť. ň has its own key, right of ä.

How do I type ó, ĺ and ŕ?

Press the dead acute ´ (the key left of Backspace), then o, l or r.

Where are @, € and the brackets?

Alt Gr + V gives @, Alt Gr + E gives €, Alt Gr + F and G give [ ], and Alt Gr + B and N give { }.
