I dont know what the hell devs doing about chinese translation, its not inaccuracy but errors! ![1](https://forums.ageofempires.com/uploads/default/original/3X/4/7/4739b3cde42e05d1cadffea6eb3651c3854a311b.jpeg) The first is civs name, the Simplified Chinese translate it without **“人”** , so it **Poles** should be **“波兰”** , **Bohemians** should be **"波西米亚"** ![2](https://forums.ageofempires.com/uploads/default/original/3X/4/6/46f7164a79f197d50ca10501afeb7173a09db80c.jpeg) In English, Poles have “Villagers regenerate 5HPs pre minute in Dark, 10 in Feudal, 15 in Castle, 20 in Imperial Age”, but in devs just translate it in **“村民可再生”**. Well, it equals to **“Villagers can Revived”**. Are you guys translate text by Google? If you want smplified, **it should be "村民可自动恢复生命值"** ![3](https://forums.ageofempires.com/uploads/default/original/3X/8/3/837cd7c715f6ca890528967b2751314aa64fe7ed.jpeg) This is Bohemians, Which Unqiue techs “Hussite Reforms” means “the gold cost replaced by food”, but the Chinese translation It “cost **only** gold but food”, what the hell ??? And the Unique Unit “Hussite Wagon”, which description “Units behind it receive 50% less damage from incoming projectiles”. Chinese translation the **“projectiles” into “炮弹”** , which just means Cannon’s damage. But the truth is it can reduce Throwing objects damage includes the Arrows in Range and others. ---

There’s so many mistakes in Spanish aswell, and most likely in other languages. Microsoft’s translation team (if it even exists) is plain terrible… ---

Except Google Translate is better and most of the time it doesn’t have spelling mistakes. Idk how Microsoft can ■■■■ up this consistently. One would think that they hire someone to double check if the translations are of good quality, but I guess it’s way too expensive to proofread a few sentences. ---

What I feel more disappointed is the lack of support for displaying Chinese characters. If you go to tech tree of Bohemians, you see this ![image](https://forums.ageofempires.com/uploads/default/original/3X/7/6/7668070e0720df2694f9f1bf480d3da00277972e.jpeg) The supposed text is 榴弹炮, instead, ■弹炮 is displayed. That’s like you see “■rcher” in your archery range, which is unacceptable. (Obviously game has 2 sets of character display system, so the helptext can display unicode nicely.) Not to mention a lot of commonly used characters are missing. The below image I typed 说啥(What you said) 魏蜀吴(Wei, Shu, Wu, names of the three kingdoms). And that’s what I see. ![image](https://forums.ageofempires.com/uploads/default/original/3X/f/5/f55694abdbd212b9e905cf991de6f52c085f767f.png) By the way, this problem has been mentioned and reported ever since game is released. ---

it’s now may and i can’t believe the “Hussite Reforms” translation error is still not fixed. That one is truly hilarious
