QWERTY vs QWERTZ

Both "qwerty" and "qwertz" are correct and commonly used keyboard layouts. The choice between them depends on the region and language preferences of the user.

Last updated: March 23, 2024 • 996 views

QWERTY

This is a standard keyboard layout used in many English-speaking countries.

The term "qwerty" refers to a specific keyboard layout where the first six letters on the top row are Q-W-E-R-T-Y. It is widely used in English-speaking countries.

Examples:

  • I prefer typing on a qwerty keyboard layout.
  • Most laptops come with a qwerty keyboard by default.
  • If it weren't for Qwerty, I'd be completely empty.

Alternatives:

  • qwertz
  • azerty
  • dvorak
  • colemak
  • keyboard layout

QWERTZ

This is a keyboard layout used in some European countries, particularly in German-speaking regions.

The term "qwertz" refers to a keyboard layout similar to qwerty but with the Y and Z keys swapped. It is commonly used in German-speaking countries.

Examples:

  • In Germany, many keyboards use the qwertz layout.
  • Typing on a qwertz keyboard can be challenging if you are used to qwerty.
  • If it weren't for Qwerty, I'd be completely empty.
  • OK, 4-D. Parker vs Van Wertz. Thank you.
  • Synthetic N-acylated sphingoid bases that do not have the erythro configuration, or otherwise are not constituents of natural ceramides as described by Wertz, will not be named using the term ceramide.
  • The term ceramide as part of the INCI name will only be assigned to a synthetic N-acylated sphingoid base that contains, as the predominant component, the erythro isomer of at least one of the many natural ceramides described by Wertz.

Alternatives:

  • qwerty
  • azerty
  • dvorak
  • colemak
  • keyboard layout
