Qwerty effect

The QWERTY effect (or qwerty effect) emphasizes ways that modern keyboard layouts have influenced human language,[1] naming preferences[2] and behavior.[3][4]

The Wubi effect references the same process of influence driven by autocomplete, Chinese input methods for computers (such as the Wubi method), and real time input suggestions from search engines based on current events.[5]
