Inserting a Space
To insert a space between characters, press the
key when the cursor blinks in the Text Area.
Scrolling
To move the cursor to the left or right through
your text, press the Left or Right key.
Clearing Strokes and Characters
Press the C key one or more times to remove
key stokes to the left. When the Key Stroke Field
is empty, pressing the C key removes characters
from the Text Area.
Rapid Character Entry
Rapid character entry is easy in any mode, using
the Character Selection Field. As you enter
characters, your phone predicts the next
character you might want and presents choices
in the Character Selection Field. When the
character you want appears, you may select it as
described in step 4 on page 51.
For example, when you want to type the word
"zhong guo (
)," enter the first character
using the following keystrokes; 9, 4, 6, 6, 1 and
7. You don't need to complete the Pinyin spelling
to include "guo (
)." With no extra typing, the
character displays conveniently in the Character
Selection Field for you to choose.

Using Chinese Stroke Mode
This mode allows you to enter individual Chinese
strokes, in written order, from top to bottom and
from left to right. Your phone provides Chinese
Simplified Stroke mode and Chinese Traditional
Stroke mode.
The two modes work similarly, but the
characters that appear on the display may differ.
Even though there are many different strokes
used to create Chinese characters, the strokes
are classified into 5 basic categories; heng, shu,
pie, dian and zhe. The basic strokes are printed
on the 1 to 5 keys on the keypad.
To enter a stroke, press the key printed with the
stroke that most closely represents the exact
stroke you want.
The table shows the stroke/key relationship:
