I have no idea what kind of keyboard has its zero on the same key as its colon, but now I really, really want to find out. Its manufacturers must be huge fans of innuend-O.

I think it’s an O with an umlaut, rather than a zero and colon.
Just might want to notice that it may be the Swedish capital letter ‘Ö’.
My keyboard has.

I’ts a key from a german “kwertz” keyboard.
How can someone fail to hit 6 keys in a row??
qwertz
You tell me…
qwerty
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/QWERTZ
in Germany (i don’t know about other European countries) they switch the position of the z and y keys to in Germany it is a qwertz keyboard.
Guess what, German keyboard layout says qwertz, not qwerty…
Live and learn, eh!
It’s a swedish keyboard, the letter ö (an o with dots)
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/%C3%96
It’s a German keyboard, which has an O with an umlaut. See the key to the right of the L here: http://www.ocztechnologyforum.com/staff/nicoocz/guides/DIY/7.jpg
Or Swedish… or Finnish, or Hungarian, or Turkish, or…
Pedantry aside, that is a funny little face. :-B
It’s Swedish, you noobs
Among others too, noob!
You mean nööbs. They’re called nööbs.
that’s just the ö letter from swedish and finnish keyboards, silly.
Instant smiley!
in my home country(Turkey)thats one the letters in our alphbet
öööö ÖÖÖÖÖ
lame, this is just a german Umlaut Ö key. The one on my keyboard looks even better! 😛 just kidding, this is a pretty neat discovery
Ö
It’s from a German keyboard. I guarantee you will have this explained about fifty times.
Up to 55 times now!
It’s from a NORWEGIAN keyboard. Norwegian. The Ö was simply an extra button that I had no use for. As I said, I poked it the hell off, and replaced it with an Ø.
Or a Finnish keyboard. It has Å, Ä and Ö . Is sort of a sound of oe.
Ha, that’s just a key from German, Swedish, Finnish, etc. keyboard. Haven’t you seen an “ö” (or “ä”) before?
Or it can simply be a hungarian keyboard with the vowel ö. Hungarian vowels: a, á, e, é, i, í, o, ó, ö, ő, u, ú, ü, ű.
Could also be swedish, finnish, danish, norwagian… It’s Ö, I have one almost identical on my keyboard.
Nope, can’t be a Danish keyboard. We don’t use umlauts except for a very few loan words. Apart from normal qwerty-ness, we just have æ, ø and å. I am fairly sure the same goes for Norwegian (since Danish has pwned Norwegian).
Fail, that isn’t a colon and a 0 or O, it’s an O with a an Umlaut…
It could also be a swedish keyboard. The letter Ö looks like that. But yes it could also be a ¨and a O.
Or it could be a swedish keyboard.
retard, it’s a Ö
could be the Ö from the swedish/finnish keyboard too.
It could be an Icelandic keyboard, we have ö as well….
This letter is also a part of scandinavian keyboards.
no, i think its a key with an “O” and a colon. that just makes too much sense, and besides, what the hell is a swedish? i dont think a gummy candy shaped like a fish is going to be using a keyboard. i mean come on guys, lets be reasonable.
Gold! :o) thanks for clarifying!!
This is a GERMAN keyboard. Scandinavian language has the O with a slash through it.
Not all of them… We in Sweden have have Å Ä Ö
not all Scandinavian alphabets have “Ø” in them, at least Finnish and Swedish don’t.

It’s probably an umlaut. I love umlauts…ö
yeah, it’s probably my favourite grammatical tool. ö sounds so much funnier than a plain o 🙂
definitely an o with an umlaut
Stop saying Umlaut
now – to think about it… Ü is a cool letter as well… a VERY big smile
look –
Ü
lol. Now I’ll always feel like I’m being watched when using my computer. XD Ö key is shocked at what you’re doing on the web this late again. But Ü just thinks it’s funny.
hehe,damn,never thought about it,same with ö.
Ä looks like a shocked carp to me now. löl.
It could be a Norwegian keyboard, because if you buy one at Clas Ohlson, which a lot of Norwegians do, you get the Æ and Ø keys loose, to replace the Swedish Ä and Ö. Thus the loose Ö key.
Was the original comment a form of trolling here, or a lack of experience of the world outside the good ol’ U S of A?
I must admit though the first time I used a german keyboard it took ages to get used to QWERTZ instead of QWERTY. (eg: I’m so happz here on mz holidaz here in Germanz etc etc)
It’s on German keyboards. It’s an O with Umlaut. We also have the keys Ü and Ä.
it’s the swedish letter ö. as well as german, we also have the letters ä and å. so it could be from either a swedish or german keyboard
The two dots above the “O” is called a diaeresis, not an umlaut. The term “Umlaut” refers to the sound that one makes when one pronounces a vowel that is written with a diaeresis above it, not the diaeresis itself.
welp, you learn something new every day
Nope. The diaeresis, while graphically similar to the umlaut, serves a totally different purpose.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diaeresis
I have that.. I use it.. swedish, finnish letters Öö Åå Ää
its in multiple languges, just not english. its just an accent.
That’s a German key from a German keyboard. Most of the vowels in the German alphabet have umlauts over the top of them.
they all have them when it’s required to emphasise pronunciation, e.g. the German word “imbißstübe”. Without the ‘ü’ the final part of the word would be pronounced “stubeh”, with the ‘ü’ it’s pronounced “stoobeh”. I can’t remember if the scharfes es is used much anymore, alls i know is it was used where the letter s would have been used twice
I’m sorry – but this example is just so wrong. I’m German and I don’t have the slightest idea what you’re referring to. We only have Ä, Ö and Ü, sometimes there is need of one of these in a plural use, e.g. “Stuhl” (chair) – “Stühle” (chairs). But “imbißstübe” is just a word that doesn’t exist at all 😉 (btw. – “Imbissstube” is pronounced “imbissstoobeh” already. And the “scharfes s” is only used if the vowel is pronounced in a “long” way: e.g. “Straße” [street] is pronounced: shtruhce – sorry if I didn’t get that right )
Best troll post today according to the comments! =D
Btw, why do you people have that urge to know best and express your besserwisser side before even reading comments? The ignorance reeks pretty hard when 40 comments in a row yells “fail, that´s this language” after it´s been told that it´s a letter that´s part of a lot of languages.
Anywho, as a fan of trolling I can enjoy ignorance and besserwissers any day! ^^
Actually, that is my keyboard. It’s a norwegian qwerty keyboard, with an extra set of swedish buttons, that I replaced with æ & ø. 8D
My keyboard has that, too. (I’m Swedish) 😀
Thanks, since seeing this I can’t stop imaging the Ö-key on my keyboard to be just a letter.
…but what about this: Ü?
In Germany they switch the ‘z’ and the ‘y’ because ‘y’ occurs so little in German, while ‘z’ is much more common than it is in English. For that reason it makes sense to put the ‘y’ in the lower corner of the keyboard.
