Hi, this is my first Mac, can anyone tell me what type of keyboard layout this is?? There is no such keyboard in settings, Uncle Google,
toutube doesnt know, I can’t find it even on the apple website. Specification says - Full size keyboard with 78US or 79 ISO keys. Actually it has 79 keys, but I can not setup it from the settings menu, there is alot of different layouts, but not the correct one :( help... THX

It is close to a Belgian or French keyboard, but appears to have been modified to make it Qwerty instead of Azerty and a few other changes. In order to have what you type match what is on the keys, you would have to create a custom input source using an app like Ukelele.

Thanks, Ukulele helped me to sort it out. This mac is from online IT shop, it was bought by my girlfriend few years ago in Poland, as brand new, so I have no idea why the keyboard is so weird 🤔 Thanks again for the help. Peace ✌🏼
Makes sense. From the link I posted…
(US) English International Layout
"It has identical characters layout as US English but
uses ISO (European) key shapes. This is the most common layout in
Poland. We also advise our customers to choose this layout, if they want
to switch from any European language to English keyboard. You can buy a
MacBook or Apple keyboard with this layout."
And as I mentioned, someone switched the key caps.

But surely you can see that there is no way to get the keyboard shown in emil297's picture by switching the keycaps of an International English layout. Just look at the number keys. The starting point has to be a French or Belgian keyboard.
Looks like the UK (British) Layout.

Nope, my keyboard has „slash” key next to the „M”...
So I see. I have no idea then. Was it ever worked on? Perhaps someone changed the key caps.
Thanks for the advise 👏, I will try to make it this way
Actually I didn't look that closely. Been a long day.
edit: FWIW, by "switched" I meant replaced.
