Microsoft IME

Microsoft IME (Input Method Editor) is a software tool that allows users to type in languages that use complex characters, such as Chinese, Japanese, and Korean, using a standard keyboard. It converts the sequence of keystrokes into the appropriate characters or symbols. For example, in Japanese, you might type phonetic sounds, and the IME suggests the correct kanji or kana. It helps users input non-Latin scripts efficiently without needing special hardware, making multilingual communication on Windows devices seamless and accessible.
