Using the Pinyin Mode
Pinyin is a system to mark Chinese pronunciation in
Latin alphabets. With the pinyin input method, you
can enter Chinese characters by entering the pinyin
string from the phone keypad and the phone
automatically presents the matching alternatives.
This mode allows you to enter Pinyin characters
with only one key press per letter.
Typing Characters in the Pinyin Mode
1. Press keys corresponding to the phonetic
spelling, referring to the Roman letters printed
on the keys. Notice that the choices in the
Character Selection Map change.
