Change language button on the on screen keyboard?

Is there any way to have it?
I'm using both English and Arabic languages & would like to implement such button instead of changing the language from the regular options arrow.
& no, I wouldn't like using other keyboards than the one that comes with the Leo.

[Q] Keyboard language

How can i change my keyboard language from english to greek . I go to menu , settings , language and keyboard , touch input , settings and the default language is only english and nothing else .I want to put there the greek language so i could write with greek with my hardware keyboard . Thank you
I want to know too
I want Thai landuage on Europe Fw.
Up.
I'm also interesting in changing my languages. For this purpose, I tryied to change it by using morelocales. The result is that now, I'm well localised on websites (i.e, youtube from the good country). But I don't have the good language predictive feature.
In the keyboard parameter, I have configured a foreign language but I don't see any difference.
How can I solve this?
Thanks for your help.
I forget. I tried by using swype. It works with the virtual keyboard but I lost the predictive feature with the physical keyboard.
bump.
i would also like to be able to use Chinese pinyin on the hardware keyboard.
Using google pinyin works, but i have to change the input everytime because the english sucks.

And where can I find it?
Arabic cannot be used as the interface language, but you can type and dread Arabic text. to change keyboards in the default keyboard click the spanner icon and it will show you a panel where you can choose your writing languages

[Q] Input language

I rooted my kindle fire and the only thing that is missing is a keyboard in my language. I did the trick to change the input language on the stock keyboard but it doesn't have the Greek language. I installed a different keyboard but I cannot find.how to.change the keyboard. Is there a way to change the keyboard or install my language to the.stock keyboard? Thank you.
you can change the input language on the stock keyboard allthrough the options are not displayed in settings:
there is a app called "any cut" on the market
in any cut you can select new shortcut - activity - and select input languages or so - can't tell exactly cause mine is german
then you have a shortcut on kf and you can select your language
btw. with playing around with the activities you'll find some other settings too (accounts and settings, ...)
maybe you want to take a look here too:

Install a kbd with your language (Swift and anysoft both have Greek). Then long press in any text entry box. A popup will show. Select 'Input method' and then choose your new kbd. It will then default to the new kbd.

I've got the same problem... did u solve it??
Swype typing does work for hebrew with the nexus 4 keyboard, I'm using a custom rom since I got the phone so I can't say 100% it works on stock but I doubt it's related to the rom.
You need to go to system settings> language and input> android keyboar(AOSP) setting --> scroll down and make sure "Enable gesture typing" is checked.
You can also buy slide it keyboard which is nice.

so far..
I have the same problem and have spent some time researching...
From what I've come to understand, the problem is related to a missing Hebrew dictionary... but I'll be glad if anyone could confirm that.
Anyway, it works on some roms which CyanogenMod based and use it's keyboard (for example LiquidSmooth)
I've also found this thread which has a flashable keyboard with the hebrew dictionary included but I've yet to check if it enables the gesture typing for hebrew so if anyone can verify that it would be nice..
don't forget to hit THANKS if I helped you.
I had this problem when i switched back to the Google keyboard.
After about half an hour received a notification to download the Hebrew dictionary for the Google keyboard.
All is working not, both prediction and gesture typing.
