I heard that in the chinesse language one word means different things depending how you put it on a sentence. So when chinesse people chat do they have all the words on the keyboard?How are the chinesse keyboards?Can we chat with someone from china?If so, how would we see their message?Hmmm.
Chinese keyboards are arranged similarly to English keyboards in that they follow the general QWERTY setupthough instead of roman letters, they have certain characters that tend to be essential to their chinese characters, eg. there are characters that are comprised of 2 or more other characters. So if Character 4 is comprised of 3 other characters that are on the keyboard, they simply type Character 1, 2, and 3 to combine them into Character 4. The cmputer automatically combines itDoes that explain it?
Don't we have many words spelled the same or that sound the same but can mean different things depending on how it appears in the sentence? Yes. Do we have all our words on our keyboards? No. We type the letters to compose the words, hitting space every so often. For Asian keyboards you type sounds and since spaces aren't used in the language, hit the space bar to quickly select whatever word combination you want. It takes very little time to do once you're used to it. Yes, you can chat to someone from China. And they can chat to you. Imagine that! Communicating to someone in a foreign land over the Internet. Who know the world would become so advanced? You can see their message by installing East Asian fonts.
Chinese computer keyboards are the same as Western keyboards -- Roman alphabet. One types in the sound sof the words, and the input system produces characters on the screen; in the case of multiple characters for a single word (which happens frequently), one is offered a choice and can celect the desired character.
