Components
The basic building units of
Chinese characters are
components that are made
up of strokes. After
entering the first two
strokes of the desired
character, the component
and character candidates
that started with that stroke are displayed in the
candidate row.

complex characters.

信息
”

Enter “ ”, “ ” and “ ”.
2 Move the cursor to “
信 ”, press .
3 Move the cursor to “
信 ”, press again to
select “ 息 ”.
Example of using the wild card key
The wild card key , is used to supplement
unclear strokes in entering characters. If you want
to enter “
互 ”, but you only know that “
一 ” is the
first and the last stroke of
the character and that the
total number of strokes is four, enter , ,
, . The character is displayed in the
candidate row.
