+  <summary>Traditional Chinese input method</summary>
+  <description>
+    <p>
+      The Chewing input method is designed for entering Traditional Chinese text.
+      Chewing helps you inputting Traditional Chinese by its pronunciation, in the
+      form of either Bopomofo/Zhuyin or Hanyu pinyin, as well as Chinese punctuation
+      marks and normal and full shape number and English alphabets.
+    </p>
+    <p>
+      Input methods are typing systems allowing users to input complex languages.
+      They are necessary because these contain too many characters to simply be laid
+      out on a traditional keyboard.
