iOS still has this problem in French on its keyboard, where "return" (for line return) is translated as "retour"... which literally means "return" but in the context of a keyboard, means backspace (on physical keyboards the backspace key sometimes even has "retour" written on it).


I always thought it was for "retour chariot" which makes sense on a typewriter.


chariot = carriage?
