    Default Foreign Keyboards

    Can anyone tell me, you know how there are non-latin based languages? Well, what do their computer keyboards look like? Like, a Chinese one would have to take up an entire room, right? Can anyone help me on this?

    That wouldnt work out lol youd need a flexy mouse and computer otherwise they'd get wet and they'd be buggered and if you did have flexy mouse and computer they would work cos screen would be dodgy and so on xD

    Japanese use ordinary keyboard. You just have to install the japanese language pack, and configure this crap, and then you can select japanese as language, and write japanese with your standard keyboard. You just write the japanese with western letters, like arigatou and it comes out as ありがとう, then you press space to scroll through the different kanji's of the word(meaning the different signs like the ones in chinese written language) and you get 有り難う。Sorta like using the T9 dictionairy on a european cellphone.

    nah, you just write the word straight out and it appears in japanese letters...

    Like I just said, you write for example "kore wa nihongo dayo" and it appears as "これは日本語だよ。"
    But in some cases a word has different meanings when written with different kanji(signs) so you have to press space a few times to scroll to the right one, but then the ones you use the most appear on the top of that list so you usually only press space a couple of times in a sentence, besides, we don't use spaces between words so ironically space isn't used to make space
