Type letters, numbers, or symbols that aren't on the keyboard: Touch and hold the related letter, number, or symbol, then slide your finger to choose a variation. On the Thai keyboard, for example, you can choose native numbers by touching and holding the related Arabic number. Chinese You can use keyboards to enter Chinese in several different ways, including Pinyin, Cangjie, Wubi Hua, and Zhuyin. You can also use your finger to write Chinese characters on the screen. Entering Simplified or Traditional Chinese Pinyin Use the QWERTY keyboard to enter Pinyin for Chinese characters. As you type, suggested Chinese characters appear. Tap a suggestion to choose it, or continue entering Pinyin to see more options. If you keep entering Pinyin without spaces, sentence suggestions appear. Entering Chinese Cangjie Use the keyboard to build Chinese characters from the component Cangjie keys. As you type, suggested Chinese characters appear. Tap a character to choose it, or continue typing up to five total components to see more character options. Entering Simplified Chinese Stroke (Wubi Hua) Use the keypad to build Chinese characters using up to five strokes in the correct writing sequence: from left to right, top to bottom, outside to inside, and from inside to the closing stroke (for example, the Chinese character 圈 (circle) should begin with the vertical stroke丨). As you type, suggested Chinese characters appear (the most commonly used characters appear first). Tap a character to choose it. If you're not sure of the correct stroke, enter an asterisk (*). To see more character options, type another stroke, or scroll through the character list. Tap the match (匹配) key to show only characters that match exactly what you typed. For example, if you type 一一 (one one) and tap the match (匹配) key, the more commonly used 二 (two) appears as an exact match. Entering Traditional Chinese Zhuyin Use the keyboard to enter Zhuyin letters. As you type, suggested Chinese characters appear. Tap a suggestion to choose it, or continue entering Zhuyin letters to see more options. After you type an initial letter, the keyboard changes to show more letters. If you keep entering Zhuyin without spaces, sentence suggestions appear. Appendix B International Keyboards 175
