Introducing Chinese Input Method on Linux

The flexibility and convenience of Linux make it a popular choice for many people. However, one of the features that some novice users find difficult to use is entering Chinese characters. This guide focuses on introducing Chinese input methods on Linux and explains how to switch between various input modes.

In general, there are two types of Chinese input methods on Linux: Traditional (Cin) or Simplified (PIME). You can choose any one of these input methods and the installation is the same for each.

To begin, open a terminal and change into root privileges.

sudo -i

Next, install input-methods on your system. For example, to install the Simplified Chinese Input Method Editor (PIME) type:

apt-get install ibus-pinyin

Now, let’s set it as the default language:

im-config -n ibus

Finally, start the Input Method Editor (IME) on your system. To do this, type:

ibus-daemon -rdx

If all went well, you should now be able to switch between various input modes on your system, such as English and Chinese. You can change the language mode by clicking on the menu bar and selecting the language you want.

For a better Chinese input experience, you can even install crowdsourced handwriting input methods, such as Rime or Sogou Pinyin. To install Rime, type:

apt-get install librime-dev librime-data

To install Sogou Pinyin, type:

apt-get install fcitx fcitx-rime
``` 

Sogou Pinyin also has various other options which you can configure such as replace, auto-translation and spell checking. 

Using Chinese input methods on Linux is easy and convenient once you have the basic settings in place. With the help of these handy tools, you can easily switch between languages, making it easier to work with both English and Chinese text.
