Fengshui Form-Phonetic Input Method
风水形音输入法
— Swift as wind, fluid as water
V 1.3.1 · Dictionary updated 2026.07.08

Introduction
The Fengshui Form-Phonetic Input Method (风水形音输入法, “Fengshui” for short) was developed by combining the design ideas of the most advanced Chinese input methods. It overcomes the shortcomings of traditional Pinyin and Wubi methods — hard to learn and hard to use — while absorbing the 米 (rice) glyph radical arrangement and the idea of using a phonetic code as the final-key identifier from “Modern Wubi”, together with the large radical table and large dictionary of 091 Wubi. It is a Simplified Chinese input method suited to the widest range of users.
Its single-character coverage spans the entire Table of General Standard Chinese Characters — 8,105 characters in total (3,500 Level-1 common, 3,000 Level-2 less-common, 1,605 Level-3 specialized), plus a dictionary of up to 157,000 words.
The radical table is built on the 米 (rice) / 人 (person) glyph structure, combining the I Ching, Yin-Yang and the Five Elements with alphabetic pictography, and weaving in birds and beasts, natural elements, body parts and cardinal directions. It is not only easy to memorize, but also — it is said — brings lasting good fortune to the user and their descendants, a masterwork that fuses Chinese-character decomposition with traditional Chinese philosophy.
