ak z,xcvbnmz,
Above you can see what comes up when I write on my newly acquired apple
keyboard, aluminium one full size. It is from the letters of the bottom line, from Z to M and the
comma. So, the question is, fault with the keyboard or can it be
cancelled.
iMac 27″, macOS 10.12
Mac keyboards generate generic key-numbers, regardless of the glyphs on the key caps. The translation to "real" letters is done in Mac software as specified in:
settings/System preferences > Keyboard > Input Sources
if you have the expected input source, such as US for a US keyboard, then seeing comma replacing x suggests your PHYSICAL keyboard is broken.
you can use Keyboard Viewer to help visualize what keys are being pressed:

It's not totally clear from that what is happening. Does pressing the z key produce ak z, ? and pressing the comma key produce z, ?
In any case it sounds like a defective/damaged keyboard as mentioned earlier.
