How It Works

This tool converts between traditional and simplified Chinese characters. It uses a dictionary of common character mappings.

It is a toy. Beyond single characters it knows only a short list of words, such as 头发 → 頭髮, so it gets many other words wrong. For real text, use OpenCC, which converts whole phrases and handles regional variants.
