看到國外一則報(bào)道,說短信用多了能增強(qiáng)孩子的拼寫能力。這肯定是針對(duì)國外的孩子們說的。在中國,電腦用多了以后最常見的情形就是,孩子們寫字不好看了,還有好多字不會(huì)寫了。不知道“提筆忘字”之后,還會(huì)發(fā)生什么呢?
A poll commissioned by the China Youth Daily in April 2010 found that 83 percent of the 2,072 respondents admitted having problems writing characters, forgetting how to write traditional Chinese characters – literally, “take pen, forget character” or character amnesia.
《中國青年報(bào)》在2010年4月進(jìn)行的一項(xiàng)調(diào)查顯示,在2072位被調(diào)查者中,有83%的人承認(rèn)寫字的時(shí)候會(huì)遇到“提筆忘字”的情況。
Chinese boffins say that character amnesia happens because most Chinese people use electronic input systems based on Pinyin, which translates Chinese characters into the Roman alphabet.

The user enters each word using Pinyin, and the device offers a menu of characters. So users must recognise the character, however they don’t need to write it any more.
用戶輸入拼音后,電子設(shè)備就會(huì)提供一系列與之匹配的漢字供選。所以用戶只須識(shí)別這些漢字,而根本不需要把它們寫出來。
