Chinese Typing with an Input Method Editor (IME)
Chinese has thousands of characters. You type sounds or shapes with a keyboard, and IME software picks Hanzi. TypingBit displays passages; your operating system provides the IME.
Why we do not ship a web IME
Native IMEs handle vocabulary, user dictionaries, and tone disambiguation better than a small browser script. Turn on Chinese input in Windows or macOS settings, then match the passage shown on TypingBit.
Learning path
Start with easy simplified-Chinese sentences. Focus on correct character selection in the IME candidate window, then improve speed. Accuracy matters more than raw keys per minute.
