Taiwanese Language Input Methods Coming Soon
Taiwan has so many different national languages, and one official script (字體).
This makes it hard for people to use their native dialects (本地方言), like Hakka and Hokkien (客家話和閩南話), when they use their phone or computer.
That's because some rare characters (稀有的字) are not available on electronic devices.
Taiwan has been working hard to promote (推動) its national languages.
The Hakka Affairs Council says people will be able to type (打字) using Taiwanese dialects on their phones next yea...
