Chinese Converter
Convert Simplified ⇄ Traditional, all in your browser
Chinese Converter does Simplified ⇄ Traditional conversion locally, powered by the official OpenCC dictionaries (via js-opencc). Its hard-protect dictionary guarantees names, brands and special terms are never wrongly converted — the thing most converters get wrong. Nothing you paste ever leaves the browser.
Hey hunters! Most Simplified⇄Traditional converters mangle names, brand terms, or anything you wanted left alone. Chinese Converter is built on the official OpenCC dictionaries (via my js-opencc port) and adds a hard-protect dictionary so specific terms are never touched. It runs fully in your browser — nothing you paste is uploaded. Open source — feedback welcome!
the local-only thing is really nice since i paste a lot of stuff i dont want sent anywhere, and the hard protect dictionary actually kept my company name intact which is usually the first thing other converters mangle. solid little tool.
Tried it with a few tricky names and brand terms, and it actually kept them intact which is honestly the main thing I care about. Love that everything runs locally too.
honestly love that this runs entirely locally, the hard protect for names and brands is such a smart call since thats exactly where other converters mess up. one thing id love is a tiny preview window that shows both simplified and traditional side by side in real time as you type, would make checking translations way faster than pasting back and forth
