Arabic keyboard
The Arabic keyboard (Arabic: لوحة المفاتيح العربية, lawḥat al-mafātīḥ al-`Arabīyyah) is the Arabic keyboard layout used for the Arabic language. All computer Arabic keyboards contain both Arabic letters and Latin letters, the latter being necessary for URLs and e-mail addresses. Since Arabic is written from right to left, when one types with an Arabic keyboard, the letters will start appearing from the right side of the screen.

gollark: Oxygen CAN fuse in stars, it just requires higher pressure and temperatures.
gollark: Although possibly the outer layers would be cast off and be larger and (OH NO) red.
