Features: Wubi Typing Made Easy (Revised Edition) – authoritative, accurate, convenient, and practical. Wang Yongmin, known as the "Contemporary Bi Sheng" – a man who "brought China into the information age" – declared in high school that he wanted "to have the faces of Chinese people printed in middle school physics and chemistry textbooks." In 1983, the computerized Chinese character input method "Wubi Typing" was born in Zhengzhou, earning international acclaim as "a revolutionary scientific creation, whose significance is no less than that of the invention of movable type printing in China." In 2001, he invented "Wubi Digital," a method for digitizing Chinese characters in one step, which was praised by domestic and international experts and media as "a revolution in Chinese character input technology."
After the publication of Wubi Typing Made Easy, it was widely welcomed by learners of Wubi Typing and was awarded the title of "National Outstanding Bestseller" by the China Book and Periodical Association. The main revisions include:
1. In the section on "Basic Knowledge," a new subsection titled "The Position Relationship Between Character Roots" has been added, which helps readers better understand the encoding rules in Chapter 5;
2. The root memory verses have been rewritten, totaling 25 lines. This addresses the original issue of uneven lengths and awkward phrasing, as the new verses follow a pattern of one line per key, with each line containing 7 characters, making them highly rhythmic and easy to memorize;
3. In Chapter 3, "Detailed Explanation of Character Roots," additional content such as "Roots with Common Origins" and "Similar Roots" has been included to help readers understand the origins and differences of character roots more clearly;
4. Chapter 4, "Finger Practice," has been completely rewritten, primarily by adding exercises that compare character roots with key positions. This method combines familiarity with character roots and finger training, enabling both proficient finger skills and repeated passive memory of key positions, achieving twice the result with half the effort;
5. A new subsection titled "Solving Difficult Characters" has been added to Chapter 6, focusing on exercises for challenging characters, such as those with ambiguous recognition codes, ambiguous final roots, or difficult-to-decompose characters. This helps avoid delays caused by incorrect decomposition or code selection.
