Cyrillic keyboard long-press support for additional languages
Hello Apple Keyboard / Internationalization team, In the current beta, I noticed new keyboard support for Tuvan and Sakha. Thank you — this is very important for Cyrillic-based languages and their communities. I also noticed improvements to the Russian keyboard long-press options, but some Cyrillic letters used by other languages still seem to be missing. For example, Ossetian uses Ӕ ӕ, and this character does not appear as a long-press option. My questions are: Are there plans to expand the Russian keyboard long-press mappings to cover more Cyrillic-based languages? Is there a recommended way for language communities or developers to provide corpus/frequency data and character mappings to help improve keyboard support? Should this type of request be submitted through Feedback Assistant, Developer Forums, or another channel? I have corpus-based frequency data and long-press mapping data for many Cyrillic-based languages and would be happy to share it if useful. Thank you. Ali Kuzhuget

Autocorrection and predictive text support for additional Cyrillic languages
Hello Apple Keyboard / Internationalization team, I would like to ask about autocorrection and predictive text support for additional Cyrillic-based languages, especially Kazakh, Kyrgyz, Chuvash, and Ingush. These languages use Cyrillic scripts with their own letters, spelling rules, and word-frequency patterns. When users type in these languages, Russian-based autocorrection or missing language-specific correction can produce incorrect suggestions or replacements. My questions are: Are there plans to expand autocorrection and predictive text support for more Cyrillic-based languages? Is there a recommended way for developers or language communities to provide dictionaries, word-frequency lists, corpora, or other linguistic data to help improve autocorrection? Should this type of request be submitted through Feedback Assistant, Developer Forums, or another Apple channel? I have corpus-based frequency data and language resources for multiple Cyrillic-based languages and would be happy to share them if useful. Thank you. Ali Kuzhuget
