Typing in different languages on the Web can be as easy as clicking on a browser button.
With the Google Input Tools extension for Chrome, you can easily type in multiple languages when typing an e-mail, filling out a Web form, or writing anything else on the Web. Here's how:
Step 1: Install the Google Input Tools extension from the Chrome Web Store.
Step 2: Click on the new browser button in the upper right-hand corner of the Chrome browser and select Extension Options. Choose the languages you want from the input tools list, then close the tab.
Choose languages from the left pane.

Once you've picked the language you want to type in, a virtual keyboard for that language will appear in the lower right-hand corner of the browser.
Type with the virtual keyboard or use it as a guide for typing on your real keyboard.
