How to type Georgian
Most Georgian letters sit on the Latin key that sounds like them: ა on A, ბ on B, დ on D, ს on S, მ on M. The ones to learn: ჭ on `, ჟ on =, ძ on /, ღ on ], შ on [, ჩ on ' and თ on ;.
Everyday Georgian has no capital letters, so Shift is free for punctuation and the extra characters.
AltGr types the old letters no longer used in modern Georgian, such as ჱ and ჲ. The Layout menu also has Georgian (QWERTY) and Georgian (Ergonomic).
