Chinese (HK) Helper

Introduction

This project tries to help Chinese input in Hong Kong by providing easy-to-use input code query. It is NOT an authoritative reference of Chinese language itself.

The situation of Cangjie/Quick input

Cangjie/Quick is widely available. However Cangjie has many variants; so-called Cangjie 3 and Cangjie 5 are just two most popular variants.

Many references do not bother to mention Cangjie variant. They usually refer to Cangjie 3 in this case, since Cangjie 3 is adopted by Microsoft Windows.

We provide Cangjie 5 reference in addition to Cangjie 3. Cangjie 5 is recommended by Cangjie's original inventor, Chu Bong-Foo. Cangjie 5 has notable adopter like Mac OS X.

The situation of Cantonese phonetic input

Cantonese readings and romanization both suffer from fragmentation issues.

We are not going to settle these issues here, we just try to provide useful information.

Currently we just provide Jyutping readings from CUHK. We also maintain a list of Cantonese input methods
