Enter handwritten Simplified or Traditional Chinese Convert between Simplified and Traditional Chinese Enter Vietnamese Write Chinese characters directly on the screen with your finger. As you write character strokes, iPod touch recognizes them and shows matching characters in a list, with the closest match at the top. When you choose a character, its likely follow-on characters appear in the list as additional choices. You can get some complex characters by writing two or more component characters. For example, enter 魚 (fish), then 巤 (bristle), to get 鱲 (partial name of Hong Kong International Airport), which appears in the character list with an arrow next to it. Tap the character to replace the characters you entered. With Simplified Chinese handwriting, Roman characters are also recognized. Select the character or characters you want to convert, then tap Replace. See "Editing-Cut, Copy, and Paste" on page 33. Touch and hold a character to see the available diacritical marks, then slide to choose the one you want. You can also type the following key sequences to enter characters with diacritical marks: ÂÂ aa-â ÂÂ aw-ă ÂÂ ee-ê ÂÂ oo-ô ÂÂ ow-ơ ÂÂ w-ư ÂÂ dd-đ ÂÂ as-á ÂÂ af-à ÂÂ ar-ả ÂÂ ax-ã ÂÂ aj-ạ When Simplified or Traditional Chinese handwriting formats are turned on, you can enter Chinese characters with your finger, as shown: Touchpad 36 Chapter 3 Basics
