 | | Since Japanese input requires switching between roman and kana entry modes, and also conversion between kana and kanji (as discussed below), there are usually several special keys on the keyboard. |
 | | The kana to kanji converter offers a list of candidate kanji writings for the input kana, and the user may use the space bar or arrow keys to scroll through the list of candidates until he or she reaches the correct writing. |
 | | Sophisticated kana to kanji convertors, (known collectively as input method editors, or IME, after the name of the Microsoft product), allow conversion of multiple kana words into kanji at once, freeing the user from having to do a conversion at each stage. |
