The default input method in Trisquel(and Ubuntu) is iBus. It can be switched on through the System Setting -- Language Support. There will be a menu list for selection.
After switching, you would press Super(win) + Space to turn on specific language input methods.

However, I as a native Chinese speaker/user, would rather recommend "fcitx" packages.(I did not find the configuration of iBus. Supplementation is needed here.)
Fcitx input methods include many methods for Eastern/non-Latin languages, such as Chinese (simp / trad), Japanese, Korean, Vienamese.
To view available input methods and the specific methods that you prefer:
# apt-cache search fcitx-
To install those input methods you would like to use: (e.g. I use google Chinese input method. Of course there are other choices if you hate Google :)
# apt-get install fcitx fcitx-googlepinyin
That's it. When fcitx is selected, press Ctrl + Space and you will see the specific method that you install.
