Mac book pro keyboard language

Hello,

I am about to order a new mac book pro (I am in the UK)

I have an option to choose the keyboard language.

My question is: If I choose Russian for example, will I still have the English letters on it as well? Logically thinking I must?

Any advice appreciated.

Thank you

Every Apple keyboard available for the Mac also has English glyphs on the keys as well.


Support for most Romance languages and Russian are easily available and quickly switchable in Preferences.

Less-popular Asian and Indian languages may require you to add some stuff like additional fonts, but are a supported as well.

Yes, without English letters on there as well you would not be able to type most email and web addresses. In any case you ca see the keyboard at
