* Pinyin Input: At Google's Simplified Chinese
search site,
you can type in your search using Pinyin romanization
instead of using Chinese characters! (Thanks to tip from Jason Cox.)
For example, type in "han yu fang yan" (that is, the Pinyin romanization for
汉语方言 'Chinese dialect') and Google asks you if its guess
is correct: 您是不是要找: 汉语方言 . Click on the link to view your search results for "汉语方言"! Note: Pinyin input is also possible at Yahoo's new Yisou.com site -- Yahoo! 一搜 search site -- launched on 21 June 2004. Tip: While Google, for example, recommends entering your search with a space between each syllable, it is nevertheless possible -- if searching for high-frequency words or phrases -- to judiciously remove spacing between syllables, such as in the case of "hanyu" (Chinese) and "fangyan" (dialect), yielding the sequence, "hanyu fangyan", as the keywords for a search. (Test for yourself whether Google understands "hanyufangyan" as a single, non-spaced word.) Alternatively, conduct a Google Chinese (中文) Web Search using my slightly modified version, which enables one to input using Pinyin romanization or Chinese characters (both traditional and simplified) for Chinese searches, as well as input in English for English searches of the Web. The modified codes, with UTF-8 encoding parameters added to Google's search engine, aim to improve searching and viewing of search results in Chinese. (A version of the Google Chinese search engine was also added to the Chinese Language Teachers Association (CLTA) site. (For a discussion of UTF-8, Google's search engine, and conducting searches in Chinese, see my Google review.)
For Google's full explanation and instructions for searching in their Simplified Chinese search site,
see the quote below that is part of the information on conducting a basic search.

(NB: In addition, for those using Mac's that have "Sherlock" included as part of their Mac Operating System, they can use Sherlock to search the search engines (AltaVista, Excite, HotBot, Lycos, Yahoo, etc.). Thanks to Hsin Shih-Chang, Loyd Mowry, Olli Salmi, and Ocrat for info on Sherlock and some of the search engines above.)
