It's not specifically a Pi issue, it's a Linux issue (but Windows has the same problem).I set up a Pi5 with Pi OS for a friend today, and got quite annoyed with the language/locale settings. What I want is to have a switch between English (US) and Chinese. I can get the system changed to Chinese no problem using the raspi-config, but how am I supposed to add a keyboard. It's very easy in Ubuntu, but the Pi OS seems less intuitive? She wants to be able to switch the typing language between English and Chinese with the system in Chinese.
I've seen a few posts about adding some packages and other repositories, but the posts are from many years ago and seem dated. Can any of y'all point me in the right direction?
I don't know which section to post this, sorry if I'm wrongly posting here.
Here's a discussion of some options:

Remember, Pi OS is Linux, and Linux offers you many choices. Pick one that you like (even better if you can pick one that works).
