Answer:
- If you observe the keypad the first few letters of the upper row from left, forms the word, "QWERTY".
- The letters were arranged in this odd but familiar manner when the first typewriters were being designed in the 1800s.
- When keys were arranged logically in the ABC manner, typists could strike the keys very quickly.
