One is via a romanized version of Japanese called r\u014Dmaji (literally \"Roman letters\"), and the other is via keyboard keys corresponding to the Japanese kana. Some systems may also work via a graphical user interface, or GUI, where the characters are chosen by clicking on buttons or image maps."@en . . .
