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 “
五
”, 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.
Components
The basic building units of Chinese characters are
components that are made of strokes. After entering
the first stroke 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.
Note:
The smaller candidates surrounded by dotted
frames are components, and the bigger candidates
without dotted frames are characters.
