MacBook Pro 13 - Keyboard Language

Hello, I'm thinking of buying the new MacBook Pro 13inch (M1 Chip) with English/Arabic Keyboard.

When I choose the potions online for the laptop, I have the option of choosing only one keyboard language (for this i actually mean the physical letters written on the keyboard). If I choose Arabic and complete the purchase, will I get both letters (English & Arabic) on the keyboard or just the Arabic?


this is so confusing

Have you seen keyboards with just Arabic on them? I wonder how someone would be able to type most email and web addresses, such as www.apple.com, in that case?


All Apple keyboards for Arabic and other non-Latin scripts (Russian, Greek, Thai, Hebrew, Chinese, Japanese, Korean) do also have English on them.

keep in your mind that not everyone is an apple product addict .. so it's normal to ask such questions!

I think you misunderstood my own question. Do you know if Windows or other non-Apple computers have keyboards with only Arabic on them? I don't have any experience with them, but if so I wonder if they have some special way then to type English email addresses.
