Current Behavior

image

when typing in chinese, entire quote is treated as one word -> whenever space is pressed the test finishes, also every quote is in the short category.

Expected Behavior

could count every character excluding punctuation as a word

Steps To Reproduce
  1. change language to chinese simplified
  2. go to quotes
  3. press space
  4. test finished
Environment
  • OS: Windows 10
  • Browser: Google Chrome
  • Browser Version: Version 124.0.6367.119 (Official Build) (64-bit)

Research direction

No file or test is named in the issue. Start by tracing Chinese simplified quote handling and word counting from quote mode, then reproduce the space-key behavior described; done means characters are counted individually while punctuation is excluded and quotes are no longer all classified as short.
