How to test your Bengali keyboard
It takes about a minute. Use your physical keyboard: clicking the keys on screen doesn't test anything.
Press every key
Click the keyboard above, then press each key on your Bengali keyboard. Working keys light up and stay tinted, and the counter shows your progress.
Check the special keys
Press ং, ঃ, ঁ, the hasanta ্ and the vowel signs. Try Shift and Alt Gr combinations as well, since many characters need them.
Match your keyboard
Choose Windows or Mac, and ISO if your keyboard has an extra key next to the left Shift, so the keyboard on screen matches yours.
About the Bengali keyboard
Bengali is written in its own script, and many letters join into conjuncts that you type by pressing a consonant, the hasanta (্) and another consonant. Windows offers Bengali layouts for both Bangladesh and India.
The tester follows the physical key you press, so it shows whether the key itself works. The character that appears in a document depends on the layout selected in Windows or macOS. If the right key lights up but the wrong character appears, change your language setting. Our guide to the keyboard layout explains the standard rows and special keys.
Add the Bengali keyboard to Windows or Mac
