The Georgian keyboard (Georgian: ქართული კლავიატურა [kʰɑrtʰuli kʼlɑviɑturɑ]) includes several keyboard layouts for Georgian script.
Standard keyboard[]
This is the Georgian standard[1] keyboard layout. The standard Windows keyboard is essentially that of manual typewriters. It is mostly a phonetic transliteration of the Russian JCUKEN keyboard layout, with some characters on rows two and three shifted right to accommodate for additional Georgian letters, others replaced with dissimilar Georgian letters and differences in the non-letter keys, including inverted functionality of the Shift key in most of the top row..

QWERTY keyboard[]
This is the Georgian QWERTY[2] keyboard, where the Georgian letters are placed similarly to corresponding Latin letters. While Georgian has no capital letters, because it has 33 letters and English has only 26, using the shift key is necessary to write Georgian, because several letters require shifting in order to be typed.
