Qwerty effect

The Qwerty effect is the concept that modern keyboard layouts have influenced human language,[1] naming preferences[2] and behavior.[3][4]

The Wubi effect references the same process of influence driven by autocomplete, Chinese input methods for computers, and real time input suggestions from search engines based on current events.[5]
