International Character Sets

Computer are sold with keyboards and character sets that match the local dominant language. In the USA that is English. Big surprise, eh. What happens when you want to communicate with others who do not speak speak or read English? It's a daunting task for most folks who grew up only speaking English as our general knowledge and use of other languages is poor, but assume, for a moment, you had mastery of another language. Forming the non-English characters required and viewing them on screen is not an intuitively obvious task.

Enter WordWalla and their free email service. With a WordWalla account you can send and receive foreign alphabet email to anyone, even if they don't have the appropriate language computer. Just pick the language in which you wish to compose. Output is viewed directly in WordWalla or in HTML for those using other mail systems.

It's easier to try it than explain it all. For example, here is the character string "qwerty" entered in one message using several different languages.

Want to give it a whirl? Just open a WordWalla account at www.wordwalla.com.
