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

for entering complex characters.
For example, to enter “
信息

1 Enter “ ”, “ ” and “ ”.
2 Move the cursor to “ 信 ”, press .
3 Move the cursor to “ 息 ”, press
again to select “ 息 ”.
