Justification We based this keyboard on the Russian and Ukrainian keyboards, because they are the most similar keyboards to Urum based on the letters. Since the Urum people live in Southern Ukraine, they should be familiar to the Russian/Ukrainian keyboard layouts (and, based on Alina's observations, they use Ukrainian as their second language online). This keyboard in universal in use for Urum, Ukrainian, and Russian.

Unique Urum letters We placed the unique letters of Urum either on the first or the second (AltGr) layer. We decided to allocate separate letters for ғ and ң like they are on the Kazakh/Russian keyboard. Umlaut letters like ӱ, ӧ are also placed on the second layer, because they are used less often than their alternatives y and o. We also added other special letters that occurred in the narratives, such as һ and θ.

Other letters We left the Russian letters ы, и and ъ as they are on the Russian layout, because they occur in Urum too. We also added the Ukrainian letters і, ї, є, ґ, ц (both Russian and Ukrainian) and щ (both Russian and Ukrainian) that do not occur in Urum to the second layer, at the same place they are on the Ukrainian keyboard, but on the second layer.
