Cangjie

Cangjie (simplified Chinese: 仓颉; traditional Chinese: 倉頡; pinyinCāngjiéWade–Giles: Ts’ang¹-chieh²) is a legendary figure in ancient China (c. 2650 BC), claimed to be an official historian of the Yellow Emperor and the inventor of Chinese characters.[1] Legend has it that he had four eyes and four pupils, and that when he invented the characters, the deities and ghosts cried and the sky rained millet. He is considered a legendary rather than historical figure, or at least, not considered to be sole inventor of Chinese characters. The Cangjie method, a Chinese character input method, is named after him. A rock on Mars, visited by the Mars rover Spirit, was named after him by the rover team.

  2. Can I simply say what a relief to discover an individual who genuinely knows what they are discussing online.
    You actually know how to bring a problem to light
    and make it important. A lot more people have
    to look at this and understand this side of the story. I can’t believe you’re
    not more popular because you definitely have the gift.
