To get even more pedantic: I wouldn't say Cangjie or Dayi inputs are an "alphabet", and a sizeable number of users use those. They're certainly a way of inputting characters; and a method of looking at how glyphs can be broken down (one by stroke order, one by shape), but for it to be an alphabet there must be a rough phoneme mapping AFAICT; which there isn't.
(but yes, the majority seems to use phonetic/alphabetic input methods, i.e. pinyin or zhuyin.)
- HumanDrivenDev 9y agoAs a fellow pedant I made sure to use words like "almost" (:
- Manishearth 9y agoRight, it's not even "almost"; I'm saying a significant number of folks use Cangjie -- not a majority; but still a large number.
