FAQ
Q: What's the difference between Simplified and Traditional Chinese?
A: Simplified Chinese uses simplified character forms and is mainly used in mainland China. Traditional Chinese retains traditional character forms and is used in Taiwan, Hong Kong, Macau, and other regions. Besides character differences, there are also vocabulary differences across regions, such as “计算机” (mainland) vs “電腦” (Taiwan, Hong Kong).
Q: Why are there multiple Traditional Chinese options?
A: Although all use traditional characters, Taiwan, Hong Kong, Macau, and other regions have different vocabulary preferences. For example, “软件” (software) is called “軟體” in Taiwan and “軟件” in Hong Kong. Selecting the corresponding region provides conversion results that better match local language habits.
Q: How accurate is the conversion?
A: For common texts, accuracy can reach over 99%. However, for technical terms or special usage, manual review is recommended.
Q: What content can be converted?
A: Supports conversion of any Chinese text, including articles, documents, web content, code comments, etc. The system intelligently identifies Chinese characters for conversion while preserving non-Chinese characters (such as English, numbers, punctuation) unchanged.
Q: Is there a character limit?
A: There is no strict character limit, but it's recommended to keep single conversions under 100,000 characters for optimal performance. For very large texts, consider converting in segments. All conversions are completed locally in the browser, unaffected by network speed.
