How to write characters containing the ǚ pinyin symbol in most common Chinese Input Methods?

Question

I am using four different input methods for typing 汉字. Most of them share the same principles for translating what you type in pinyin to Chinese characters. But I am unable to figure out how to type in pinyin words with an U with Umlaut like ǚ, for example 女.

I am using: Google Pinyin Input in Android, and Chinese Sun Pinyin, ibus m17n and ibus-pinyin in Ubuntu

Is there some common way used to type it?

Answer 1

As pinyin doesn't use the letter v, then words containing the u with umlaut can be written with v key, then combined with the number keys to get different tones.

For example:

• v+1 = ǖ
• v+2 = ǘ
• v+3 = ǚ
• v+4 = ǜ
• v+5 = ü
