General instructions
Your phone has a function to speed up the entry of Chinese characters. Whenever you
enter a stroke or a Pinyin letter, a candidate row of the most frequently used characters
containing that stroke or relating to that letter appears at the bottom of the screen.
Stroke input
A Chinese character is built up of strokes. There are more than 30 basic strokes, which are
grouped into 5 stroke categories.
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. Using
components is a fast method for entering complex characters.
Pinyin input
Select the required Pinyin letters, and the phone will make various proposals on the screen,
according to the pronunciation rules of Mandarin.
