These are the Hebrew letters that come out if SCIM – M17N-he-kbd is working.

Note that if the Hebrew SCIM is on, the SHIFT key gives Latin capitals. That is easy in case you want to write things like “FBI” or “UNICEF” without switching off the Hebrew. The English or whatever word will come out to the left of the last Hebrew word, and the order will be correct. When typing Hebrew again, the next Hebrew word will show up to the left of the English word, just as the case is with numbers.

Other signs:

Note the location of the:

Hebr. period [ . ] is on the ?/ key;

Hebr. question mark [ ? ] is just SHIFT + ?/

Hebr. comma [ , ] is on the “ ' key

Hebr. semi-colon [ ; ] is on the ~` key far to the left

Hebr. colon [ : ] is just SHIFT + :;

Hebr. slash [ / ] is on the Q key

Hebr. accent [ ' ] (used to modify certain consonants) is on the W key
