Search improvements with punctuation in Chinese #3229
Description
As reported by LeviHighway on the wall:
Should punctuation marks be counted in the character count? In Chinese, for example, in Word, each punctuation mark counts as one character (and when we wrote essays as students, punctuation was also included in the character count). On Tatoeba, the Chinese enumeration comma (、) and period (。) are counted as one character, but question marks (？), exclamation marks (！), colons (：), and semicolons (；) are not counted. I think the Chinese counting standard should be improved.
Additionally, since search engines do not ignore Chinese periods, when searching for "瑪莉"$, only results like "……瑪莉？" can be obtained, while "……瑪莉。" cannot be found. This should be considered a bug.
