[gogrow]

just fartin around last night and i had a stupid sober thought.... all i have seen about the written chinese language is symbols for words... so therefore, how the hell do they type??? and they read from right to left... sooo...????

That's a good question ! Maybe their keyboards are wired to automatically format the words the right way as they type ....

Typically most chinese type using pinyin on a standard keyboard. Pinyin is a system of romanization for Chinese characters. (I'm study chinese that's why I know these things ) So basically they spell out the word in pinyin and type a number to indicate the tone. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pinyin

ha i've always thought about that. non-symbol languages just make more sense that pictures, IMO

I have it on good authority that the Chinese use their fingers to type.
