For example, English speakers commonly mix up your/you're or there/their/they're. I'm curious about similar mistakes in other languages.

Be happy that it doesn't: brazilian keyboards added an extra key for "ç" right in the middle of the keyboard and it's pretty useful, until the day you have to use any other keyboard and realize that if you configure it to use the brazilian layout, you're not losing the "ç", you lose the comma, or question mark, or exclamation mark or something much more annoying to be left without.

Now you either learn to type again with another keyboard layout, or spend the rest of your life using only cheap keyboards made in brazil that have the "right amount" of keys.
