If you are on a Windows 10 PC, on the lower right hand side, next to the date/time, there is a little keyboard icon, click on that & it asks country or region, and below that, LANGUAGES. There is a plus sign that says "Add a language". After you add Hebrew, you have to click back & forth when it asks you to type in Hebrew, or English. The Hebrew is all in the lower case letters, so when it asks for English, I push CAP LOCK, and it types in all capital English letters. Hope this helps! If you don't have Windows 10, check on YouTube or Google it. Good luck!
Your answer is wrong because you wrote "המאם" instead of "האמא" (ha'ima, the mom).
The reason "האם באה" was suggested is a bit tricky. You see, there are two words for mother: the colloquial אמא (ima), and the more formal אם (em). Duolingo was suggesting you write "the mom" as "האם" (ha'em), and wasn't refering to the question word האם (ha'im).
Hope this helps!
I have English, Dutch, French, Hebrew, Russian, Sinhala and Tamil keyboards installed on both my computer and my phone. None of them are provided by Duolingo and they're very easy to switch between. What's the problem? My computer is running Windows XP, which is now 15 years old and no longer supported by anyone, so if I can do this, why can't anyone else who is using a much more modern system?
well I guess not everyone's having the problem but a lot of people (myself included) aren't able to find the onscreen keyboards. I looked through every single setting on my laptop and it's not on there. I can still change the keyboard, but I don't know which key corresponds to which letter. Like I said, limiting and time-consuming
Perhaps if you feel the need to see the letters you could find an image of the keyboard layout you want and put a printout next to your keyboard as you type. I've gotten used to the tops of the keys not always corresponding to the letter that appears on screen (for example French has "Q" and "A" in the opposite positions to English).
I have a program on my computer called Phrase Express (which apparently is also available on mobile). It takes a bit of setup, but it's only tedious, not difficult at all, and once you're set up that's it. Then all you need to do is type your autotext (doesn't even have to be unique!) and it will pop up with options to select from or ignore. It's super useful and versatile.
GrammyBecky, At the bottom of my "desktop" (home screen) I see the "dock" [all the little icons, like "Safari," "mail."] / Now, I look for the little gray box with a gear in it. / When my arrow is on it, I see its name: System Preferences. / I click on it. / Now I see choices. : I click on the little light blue flag : Language Region. / I see (on the left) : Preferred Languages. / I choose : Hebrew. / I see (on the right) : Region-- ( I ) choose : United States / First day of week-- ( I ) choose : Sunday / Calendar : Gregorian / [SKIP : Time Format] / List sort order-- ( I ) choose : Universal / Now, at the bottom, I see : Keyboard Preferences. ... / (at the top right) I see: Input Sources (in blue) / I click on it. / I choose: Hebrew- QWERTY / I click on it. / (on the right) I see a Hebrew keyboard. / (at the bottom) I click on the tiny "box" : Show input menu / Now, I click on the red circle (at the top left) of the "box." / I'm back at the desktop (home screen) On the right side I see a U.S. flag. / I click on it. / I scroll down to Hebrew-QWERTY. / Next, I scroll down to : Show Keyboard Viewer (which appears on my left) / * (On the left side of the "little" keyboard I see two arrows, pointing upward.

???) I am using a Mac with Hebrew-QWERTY and a keyboard viewer. When I use it to send (by Facebook) , for example: שבת שלום, the cursor moves to the right when I type the first letter. Just now, I noticed that, although the cursor remained on the left, I could type two consecutive words successfully. In the course I can successfully type just one word. So ’’שבת,, cannot be followed by ’’שלומ,, !
