Description

Hello, I love the keyboard and what it stands for, so far it's been a painless switch from gboard other than one thing. I'm multilingual and switch really often between keyboard layouts. What I liked about gboard is that it allowed me to use an English-Lithuanian layout, but also have autocorrect for both languages at the same time. The autocorrect was not as aggressive as on a separate language-dedicated layout, but it allowed me to type in both languages intermittently without needing to switch layouts. I would like to have this be a possibility on the Futo keyboard too. As in being able to combine two keyboard layouts and dictionaries into a single model.

Complexity

Complexity would perhaps be just the fact that you need to change how aggressive the autocorrect is on a combined layout.

As for now, I can technically type English words on a Lithuanian layout without switching because both languages use Latin characters. I often end up typing out sentences in English, just to notice after that the autocorrect has messed everything up because it's too aggressive.
