Borno Phonetic Layout

Borno Phonetic is our own phonetic layout (similar to the Avro Phonetic Layout). It features advanced suggestion capabilities.

Layout Modes

The Borno layout supports two operational modes:

• LM Mode: Uses an advanced Language Model for smart, context-aware suggestions.
• Regular Mode: Standard phonetic transliteration without the Language Model.

You can switch between these modes using the layout menu.
