How to send sms using cellphone in chinese?

  • Answer:

    You must have a cell phone which can display Chinese. Some cell phones bought in a non-Chinese country may be switched to the Chinese mode if their manufacturers include this mode. If your cell phone has the Chinese mode, you can send sms in Chinese. However, methods of typing Chinese vary in different countries. In Taiwan, Chinese characters are typed with notional phonetic alphabets which can be difficult for those who have never learnt the system. In addition, there are two major Chinese script systems used in the world currently. The traditional Chinese is mainly used in Taiwan and Hong Kong, while the simplified Chinese is used in China and Singapore. These two systems are not compatible in sms although many people in the above countries can read both scripts to some degree.

They use a special script on the cellphones. It is the same one that is used to teach sounds, and is used in some dictionaries. It is called BoPoMoFO (really it is) it uses 37 symbols to represent different mandarin sounds. I have a Nokia phone, purchased in Taiwan, and I study Chinese. This is also how they look up a word in the dictionary. Words (characters) are classified by their sounds.
