the keys	-	. The Wild Card
key	, is used when you are not sure

of which stroke to use.

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.

The smaller candidates surrounded by dotted frames are components, and the bigger candidates without dotted frames are characters.

For example, to enter “ ”

1Enter “ ”, “ ” and “ ”.

2Move the cursor to “ ”, press the centre selection key.

3Move the cursor to “ ”, press the

centre selection key again to select “ ”.

Example of using the wild card key
