First and second categories are employed and activated simultaneously to generate the beginning and ending of a word. First and second actuating categories may be combined with third and fourth categories of actuators to further form and modify words in any languages.

Abstract: A method for writing text employing at least one hand of a user and manipulating a keyboard having a pair of keypads which are finger depressed and a press pad which is depressed by the palm region of the hand. The first and/or second keypads are pressed simultaneously with the press pad being depressed by the palm region of the hand to generate a signal representative of a recognizable language component.
