sorry to ask but what kind of keyboards do Chinese people use to type with?



While there are thousands of Chinese characters, there are only so many sounds that a word can make in Chinese (kind of like homophones (their/there/they’re) in English). So, what we do is we type in the sound of the word you want (there are several forms of doing this; Hanyu Pinyin (which uses English letters) is popular in China and BoPoMoFo (with more Chinese-looking characters) is popular in Taiwan) and then you pick the character you want from a computer-generated list.
