It's pronounced differently, if that helps you. On the Dvorak keyboard (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dvorak_Simplified_Keyboard), the home row is aoui for the left hand and dhtns for the right hand; much more commonly used letters than on the Qwerty keyboard. The Dvorak layout is also designed so that for most words, you alternate between hands as you type; that commonly used letter pairings are next to each other; that the most uncommon letters are on the bottom row, because it's the hardest row for your fingers to reach.
You do about 70 percent of all typing on the home row, which is really different from Qwerty. I'm a pretty fast typist, and I was interested in learning a new keyboard layout, one that is faster and more ergonomic, so you have less chance of Carpal Tunnel.
