Hello here!

We are currently working (with @ManyTheFish) on the Meilisearch's tokenizer and we are considering any possibility to improve the Chinese language support. However, no one at Meilisearch speaks Chinese, which means we need the community point of view 🙌

Here are the current issues we have issues with Chinese language support (I don't say this could be fixed with pinyin):

• Search Chinese Content, Typo tolerance looks not work meilisearch#2222
• Missing Chinese search results meilisearch#2091

For any people who frequently use pinyin, could you help us identify the pros and the cons of using it?

@ManyTheFish feel free to ask or add anything that could be useful!
