Application Tips Use of Google Search Engine

1. Chinese Pinyin input search

To facilitate users who use Chinese to search online, Google allows users to directly enter Chinese pinyin on the keyboard to retrieve related things, such as:

Enter shanghaishikebiao

Search result tips: Are you looking for: Shanghai timetable

This is exactly the keyword we need to look for, and users can browse relevant results based on this, including timetables for various transportation vehicles in Shanghai. If you need to find more detailed information "Shanghai Aircraft Flight Schedule", just enter feijihangban in the middle of the original search result "Shanghai Time Schedule", for example:

Shanghai feijihangban timetable

This new Google feature can eliminate users from converting each other in Chinese and pinyin input. Do not leave spaces when users enter pinyin, otherwise Google will mistakenly consider English. Google corresponds pinyin to commonly used characters or phrases one by one, so overly uncommon characters or phrases are not suitable for searching using this method.

2. Chinese and English Dictionary

Users who often use computers will naturally have one or two dictionary software on hand to find and translate Chinese and English meanings. As a tool that is frequently used, Google also provides a Chinese-English dictionary, which is very convenient to use.

5. Postal code and area code query

People often need to query the postal code and telephone area code. Google provides such a practical function, which allows users to obtain the provincial and municipal names, postal codes and long-distance telephone area codes to be queried. The following is an inquiry example:

Area Code Shaoxing

It should be noted that users can only query the city-level postal code and area code, but cannot further query the specific information of districts and counties.

6. Mobile phone place query

After entering your mobile phone number, users can obtain information about the number segment, location, card type, postal code and area code, but from a practical point of view, only the information about the location of the mobile phone is more useful.
