^^^ You can type chinese characters on the keyboard.

Those letters in the clip basically shows you how certain things are spelled. Eg, horse, the rider (human), and the sun (fire)

Just so people understand, there are many Chinese words that resemble what they are actually representing, ex the world horse has the head and 4 legs.

Chinese langrage is a pictorial langrage. So the clip showed that Chinese symbol are like drawing of that the symbol means. The different between western langrage and Chinese langrage is by looking at Chinese symbol you can tell what it mean buy you can pronounce it. In English some time you can pronounce the word by you may not know what it means
