To use transliteration, type languages phonetically in English letters, and they
'll appear in their correct alphabet. Keep in mind that transliteration is diffe
rent from translation; the sound of the words is converted from one alphabet to
the other, not the meaning. For example, to get in ?????? with Hindi transliter
ation, type in n-a-m-a-s-t-e. You will get a list of Hindi words sound like nama
ste. Then, press SPACE to select the first suggestion ??????.
Latin IMEs are to help people type in Latin-script languages using the US keyboa
rd. Features include automatic diacritics, spell correction, and prefix completi
on. To use Latin IMEs, type unaccented letters, and they will be corrected to a
desired word. For example, type "franca" in French IME, "franais" appears, and it
can be committed by pressing TAB. If continuously typing "francais", "franais" w
ill be committed by
pressing SPACE. To get all the candidates for "francais", press BACKSPACE.
To use handwriting input, select the handwriting input of your desired language.
Press trackpad or left click of mouse to hand draw a character on the pop-up ha
