Regex for Chinese Numbers

In a scenario of source/target = English to Simp Chin, is there a way to leverage Regex so that numbers above 10,000 in English are properly rendered in Chinese?

  • Hi Susan,

    If you mean convert them to Chinese characters then I'm afraid this is not possible unless you were to list every possible number from 10,001 upwards and it's Chinese equivalent. Then you could use the regex autosuggest application to handle the conversion. But obviously this is not practical at all.

    I had a play using machine translation to see whether this might provide a solution but both Google and Language Cloud convert to western characters, so this wasn't helpful either.

    Maybe someone like has a solution for this kind of problem?

    Regards
