Translation to Chinese with WordTranslation[ ]?

Posted 8 years ago

I tried WordTranslation and found it is weak in Chinese. First I have to claim I am not linguist , I am just ordinary Chinese.

I am confused by this and I don't understand why Mandarin gives traditional Chinese and Cantonese gives simplified chinese. In China, the official language is Mandarin and it is simplified chinese not traditional Chinese. But again, I have to claim, I am not linguist, it is just my opinion.
  2. The translation feature is so weak for Chinese. For

    WordTranslation["British", All]
    

doesn't give Chinese translation??!! How could this be?! I really hope WordTranslation will get updated in the future to support Chinese translation better.
