Problem with the keyboard language Azerty or Aqerty

[pan_work at yahoo.Fr]

Thanks Liwenna,
... It seems very bad... In fact, my experiment is pretty simple, the
task is about word to be completed by the subject. In the screen, a
text like "unha_ _y" is showed and othen, on the same screen I ask to
participants to write the word it could be, for each trial. The
"wordstimulus" comes from a list, and I get attributes like the
correct answer... here the correct answer is "unhappy"...
Everything is OK with this task, I have the RT, the correct answer and
the textanswer quoted by participants... the only problem is that when
people quoted, is not the good language Keyboard  !!!
