lookup table to use as an answer key.For Dayi [with 4 keystrokes or less], dayin4.cin is publicly available on the Internet at various open-source repositories (see external links). Using the annotated image of the Dayi keyboard layout, look for the radicals that make up the character.Enter them according to the methodology. If the character is not successfully entered, search the answer table for the desired sequence of keystrokes.Try to understand why those keystrokes are used.Note that there may be more than one answer for conciseness.醫 = 匚牛大酉 (R2V8),It can be condensed into 匚酉 (R8) since it does not conflict with other words in the dictionary. Repeat with roughly 150 words in the word list. Repeat with roughly the next 150 word in the word list.If possible, this time avoid turning to the annotated layout of the Dayi keyboard. After successful practice, about 300 items have been entered.The locations of many common radicals (such as 日一言木土) would be quite familiar. Comparison with other Chinese input methods The keyboard layout for the Dayi input method contains keys for many of the Kangxi radicals in its entirety. This means that a single keystroke accounts for the left half or right half of many Chinese characters. For instance, "車" in "輸" (6AJN) is represented by "6". This allows for characters to be represented by 4 keys or less. In comparison, in Cangjie, "車" in "輸" (JJOMN) is represented by "JJ" for "十十", thus requiring up to 5 keys per Chinese character. A user of Cangjie would require experience and attention to decomposition rules to notice that the "田" segments of the Kangxi radical are omitted. Unlike other input methods, Dayi's use of 46 character components instead of 26 happens to be its greatest impediment, because it makes typing digits and punctuation marks very inconvenient. Some supported operating systems Some operating systems that support the Dayi input method are: Microsoft Windows 8/10 Microsoft Windows 95/XP Linux (via ibus-tables or similar) Apple Macintosh (via openvanilla or similar) See also Chinese input methods for computers Keyboard layout List of Commonly Used Characters in Modern Chinese Cangjie input method References External links dayi4.cin lookup table from the chinese-opendesktop project, https://github.com/chinese-opendesktop/cin-tables/blob/master/dayi4.cin Han character input
