Traditional Chinese Input Method -- Combine characters?

I use OS X's IM to type Chinese characters alot and recently stumbled into an ancient word (was doing some classical literature stuff) which I couldn't find it anywhere using Pinyin or the Character Palette. This word can be made up from two singular word, one on each side. Now my question is, does anyone know a way to 'create' such word or 'combine' two Chinese words to form one single word?
Hope there're some brighter light out here.

There is no way to create Chinese characters which have not been encoded. But the chances are good that it is already available -- you may just need to install a font which covers the CJK Extension B. If you could provide the the unicode values of the two components, I can try to find it in tables I have.

  • Traditional Chinese input method

    I would like to suggest more Chinese input methods should be added in the iPhone 3G.
    FOr example, Traditional Chinese 'Jianyi' - 'Simplex', this is more convenient to use than 'pinyin'.
    I hope that this will be covered in the new update.

    how do you change to chinese input method?
    See page 27-28 of the iphone user guide.

  • No Traditional Chinese Input!!!!

    It's an outrage only Simplified Chinese input method is supported. The majority of the US Chinese population, not to mention a very large world population use Traditional Chinese.
    Traditional Chinese input methods are already on iPhones and iPod Touch, why doesn't Apple port it to iPad?
    Make your opinion known and post followup so Apple will pay attention!

    Being able to "read and write both" does not mean the ability to understand it. I'm sure you can "read and write" English, but I'm sure that not everyone in the US knows what "going to the loo" means; hence the cultural difference between the 2 speakers.
    I can read and write both Traditional and Simplified Chinese, and I've played with the Simplified Chinese on my iPad, being a Traditional Chinese writer, "bee-hive digital" does not mean "Cellular Data" to me in any way shape or form.
    Logically, the interface to input would be the same for the iphone and the ipad, where as the iphone does suppose Traditional Chinese. I just don't understand it was left out.

  • HT5176 What languages are the chinese input methods associated with?

    In the help file for iOS Dictation the following paragraph regards to selecting language for dictation
    When you want to change the language used for Dictation:
    Tap the globe icon to change to the keyboard for that language.
    Tap the microphone icon to start Dictation.
    Note: To use Dictation, the keyboard language needs to be a supported language. Dictation is designed to recognize the specific accents and dialects of the supported countries listed above. Since every language has its own accents and dialects, the accuracy rate will be higher for native speakers.
    Now there are couple chinese input methods for simplified or traditional chinese typing.  However, which one relates to "cantonese"? They both use the same characters but with different pronunciation. 

    Following up, here is the situation:
    Using "Chinese Traditional - Changjie" as input method,
    1, dictation WILL listen as Cantonese if SIRI is set to Cantonese-Hong Kong
    2, dictation defaults to Mandarin if SIRI is set to English
    Further testing concluded that regardless of the input method, as long as Siri is set to Cantonese-Hong Kong the dictation can listen to cantonese, and otherwise it cannot.
    Is there a way to individually toggle dictation language?

  • New interface of Chinese Input Method

    I don't know if there were any other Chinese / Taiwanese people here on the Apple Communities but I really hated the new input method.
    the iOS4 interface of Chinese input method is way better.
    i wonder if there were any way i can change it back to the former one???
    if there were no way to fix it by oneself ; I hope Apple can changed it back.
    btw, does anyone know how to send an advice or suggestion to Apple on certain issue like this??
    thanks for anyone who answer my question.

    For some strange reason, Apple has decided to replace the old Chinese Handwriting "keyboard" with the new Chinese Stroke "keyboard" when you upgrade to iOS 5. The old input method is actually still there - just go into Settings / General / International Keyboards / Add New Keyboard and select Chinese Traditional (or Simplified) Handwriting. I am using an iPad 2 but hopefully it is the same for an iPhone.

  • The os x lion does not have the Dayi Pro Chinese input method anymore, help!

    After I install the OS X Lion, I found out they cancel the Dayi Pro Chinese input method which they used to have in the previous OS version.  And the Traditonal Chinese writting pad is not working, can anyone help?

  • Traditional Chinese Input

    I know that it is possible because once upon a time, I had installed it somehow on my blackberry... but for the life of me I can't remember how.  How does one get the Traditional Chinese Input capability on the BB 8310?
    Message Edited by lwang124 on 12-18-2008 05:57 PM

    You need upgrade the software to multilingual that includes Chinese Input.
    Check with your carrier to know the BlackBerry device OS release or click on this link. Look for the multilingual OS version. Download and install using desktop manager.
    If I help you with any inquire, thank you for click kudos in my post.
    If your issue has been solved, please mark the post was solved.

  • I can't type with Chinese Input Methods in Mail and Notes

    Today I suddenly can't type/input any word or character in Mail and Notes
    when the input method switches to any Chinese input method like Zhuyin, Yahoo KeyKey and Bopomofo.
    Even the cursor won't move when I press the " ↑↓←→"
    The keyboard just doesn't work from " ` " to "→" when it comes to Chinese input methods.
    However,
    the keyboard works well as soon as I switch to English input method and I can type English in Mail and Notes.
    I can type with any Chinese input methods in Chrome, TextEdit, Reminder, iPhoto, Contacts,......etc..
    Is there something wrong with Mail and Notes?
    Could anyone help me solve the problem?
    Thank you!

    Thank you, Tom.
    I have posted my issue there and hope for the best
    btw,
    I had the same problem (cannot input any word and move the cursor with Chinese input methods) in Evernote.
    Evernote Support helped me solve it.
    Here is how it works (for Evernote only).

    When you open the download, make sure to drag the Evernote icon into the Applications folder instead of running it from within the installer package.
    Eject the disk image and delete the installer file before you runEvernote.

    Many thanks!

    There is presently no way to install custom keyboards on any iOS device, but you can ask Apple to add this via
    http://www.apple.com/feedback
    Have a look at this app, which may be useful for some purposes:

    A decision i could not understand at all…..
    The language input capabilities of the iPad have been published by Apple in its tech specs since Jan. 27, so that potential customers could be aware of any limitations in that area which might affect them.

  • 6288 Traditional Chinese input?

    Does anyone know if I can get Traditional Chinese input for my 6288?
    Currently my 6288 only has the following input languages: English, Simplified Chinese and Malayu. However, I really need Traditional Chinese input. Is there any way I can get it on my phone?
    Pls help me in this. Thank you.

    The only way to do that is to take the phone to a Nokia Service Center and ask them to load firmware onto the phone that supports Traditional Chinese input.
    Knowledge should be your Advisor when you need help.

  • Missing chinese input methods

    I think I accidentally deleted the input methods for chinese simplified & traditional input for my imac lion, Please let me know where I can download and reinstall? thx

    Are they really gone from system preferences/language & text/input sources?  Make sure you scroll through the entire list.
    If so, I think you will have to reinstall the OS.  I don't know how you could possibly delete these without going to a lot of trouble.
