  • Belgian AZERTY Keyboard
    Belgians, Flemings: Demand your Swiss Keyboard! Serge Y. Stroobandt Copyright 2013–2015, licensed under Creative Commons BY-NC-SA Belgian AZERTY keyboard Three variants: French, Belgian and Tamazight (Berber). The AZERTY layout is used in France, Belgium and some African countries. It differs from the QWERTY layout in this: • The location of the [A] and [Q] keys are interchanged. • The location of the [Z] and [W] keys are interchanged. • [M] is moved to the right of [L] (where [; :] is on a US keyboard), • The digits [0] to [9] are on the same keys, but to be typed the shift key must be pressed. The unshifted positions are used for accented characters, • [Caps lock] is replaced by [Shift lock] , thus affecting non-letter keys as well. However, there is an ongoing evolution towards a [Caps lock] key instead of a [Shift lock] . It is used by most French speakers based in Europe, though France and Bel- gium each have their own national variations on the layout. Luxemburg and the French-speaking part of Switzerland use the Swiss QWERTZ keyboard. Most of the residents of Quebec, the mainly French-speaking province of Canada, use a QWERTY keyboard that has been adapted to the French lan- guage, although the government of Quebec and the Canadian federal gov- ernment stipulate and use the Multilingual Standard keyboard CAN/CSA Z243.200-92.[1][2][3] Het is de meest gebruikelijke indeling in België en in Frankrijk. Het toetsen- bord is ontworpen om gemakkelijk Franstalige teksten te kunnen invoeren, doch wordt niet alleen in Franstalige gebieden gebruikt: in heel België, waaron- der het Nederlandstalige Vlaanderen, is AZERTY de norm.

BOOK EARLY AND SAVE $1,000 PER COUPLE WHEN BOOKED BY MARCH 26, 2018 CALL US AT 1-877-813-3329 x 257 | 1 Letter from the President Dear Friend of the Museum, I invite you to join The National WWII Museum on a comprehensive tour of the sites made significant during the Battle of the Bulge. Expertly researched by our own staff and led by Luxembourg native and longtime friend of the Museum Roland Gaul, this is the most immersive tour of the Ardennes available today. From the famous “northern shoulder” of the Bulge near Elsenborn Ridge through the Bastogne Corridor and to the Luxembourg Ardennes, you will trace the routes of the last major German offensive in the West and encounter the heroic stories of the American soldiers who fought and won the largest and costliest campaign of World War II. In late 1944, few thought that a massive German counterattack was possible. Rome fell on June 4, and two days later, the largest amphibious invasion in history brought more than 150,000 men to the shores of Normandy on D-Day. By the end of August, French and American soldiers were marching through the streets of Paris.

    Running head: KNOWLEDGE OF NOVEMBER 11, 1918 IN GERMAN-SPEAKING BELGIANS 1 What is still known about 11 November 1918 in German-speaking Belgians? Christin Camia1, Clara Falys2, Jelena Scheider4, & Olivier Luminet2, 3 1Department of Psychology, Zayed University, Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates 2 Psychological Sciences Research Institute, Université catholique de Louvain, Louvain-la- Neuve, Belgium 3 Belgian Fund for Scientific Research (FRS-FNRS), Brussels, Belgium 4 Friedrich-August-Universität Erlangen-Nürnberg, Germany Correspondence regarding this article should be directed to Christin Camia, Department of Psychology, College of Natural and Health Sciences, Zayed University, P.O. Box 144534, Abu Dhabi, United Arabic Emirates. E-mail: [email protected] Integrating History in Personal Life KNOWLEDGE OF NOVEMBER 11, 1918 IN GERMAN-SPEAKING BELGIANS 2 Across countries and age groups, the First World War is consistently ranked as one of the most important historical events of the last 100 years (Pennebaker, Paez, and Deschamps 2006). Because historical events such as the First World War are publicly commemorated, discussed, and rehearsed in families and educational institutions, they become part of the collective memory unifying both small local communities and large national groups (Hirst, Yamashiro, and Coman 2018; Abel et al. 2019). This historical importance is not only based on factual knowledge, but also a result of social psychological processes. In this chapter we address how personal experiences of the First World War are shared amongst generations, and the effects this has on the descendants’ experience of commemoration. Historical events that are learned in history books, media coverage or educational institutions but happened outside of one’s lifetime usually tend to be less personally important than historical events that occurred within one’s lifetime (Pennebaker, Paez, and Deschamps 2006).
