Keyboard Mod

I guess this is the right place.

Does anyone know where I could get a keyboard mod (I think that's what they're called; please forgive/correct me if I'm wrong)? More specifically, a Greek one? I need something that allows me to freely type the language without having to do Insert Symbol on Word and copy/pasting that into everything else (For that matter, Word's Insert Symbol doesn't allow emphasised vowels, umlaut vowels or final sigma).

Please, no 'clever' comments on how I could use Google, because I've already looked.

Thanks for any help that anyone gives. Or something.
 
Μιλάω ελληνικά;

'Tworks! thanks. I guess I didn't look hard enough.

Many thankyous.
 
You press Semicolon before the vowel.

Did you just translate that? Or do you... actually know the language?
 
I know the language (or parts of it)

Γέια σας, με λένε ἀρρι. τί κανέτε?
-Πολύ καλα
 
WHY DID I NOT HEAR OF THIS BEFORE?

*Zooms to LI's profile*
 
That wasn't the intended meaning or implication. Just, y'know, I don't know anyone that speaks the language.
 
These threads make me sad. I always feel jealous that I don't know any languages other than English apart from 'angry Jess tiem'.
 
By the way, Lorem, how did you get the different accent above the ἀ?

Self-teaching a language similar to English probably wouldn't be too hard. I'm sure there are tons of resources for people learning Germanic languages, or Spanish/Japanese/etc. if you're into that.
 
Castform, there are two accents, the road and the stress. To get the road (which makes you breathe an 'h' sound), just do an apostrophe before the letter: ἀ. To get a stress, do a semicolon: ά.
 
I knew what Road did, but thanks anyway. I just didn't know what it was called.

Doesn't seem to work for me...

'α 'ε 'η 'ι 'ο 'υ 'ω

No accents D:
 
ἀ ἐ ἠ ἰ ὀ ὐ ὠ

Make sure that when you turned Greek on, the first dropdown read 'Greek', and the second read 'Greek Polytonic'.
