Setting Up Shortcut Phrases

If you need to input the phrase "今天天气真好" (Today's weather is really nice) multiple times a day, you can use QQ Input Method.

1. Open QQ Input Method -> Word Bank -> Custom Phrase -> Settings -> Add.
2. Set the abbreviation for the phrase as "jt" and set the phrase as "今天天气真好" (Today's weather is really nice).
3. Save the settings.

Now, when you input the shortcut "jt", you will see the previously set phrase "今天天气真好" (Today's weather is really nice). This saves you from typing the complete phrase every time, especially if you need to input the same content every day.

U Mode Input

Most input methods support U Mode input. For example, if we want to input the character "眚" but don't know how to spell it, we can use the U Mode. The character "眚" is composed of the characters "生" and "目". So we can input "u + sheng + mu" to get the character. See the screenshot below.

Conclusion

Shortcut phrases in input methods greatly improve typing efficiency, while U Mode solves the problem of not knowing how to spell a character. Most input methods currently support these features. Don't believe it? Give it a try!
