Current Behavior

With language "Chinese Simplified" and "nospace" enabled, when I type the second word it's marked as error and I can't type more.

Expected Behavior

Not so.

Steps To Reproduce
  1. Set up Fcitx5 IME and add an input method. In this case I'm using fcitx5-rime with schema "朙月拼音".
  2. Go to Monkeytype.
  3. Select the input language to "Chinese Simplified".
  4. Enable "nospace" mode.
  5. Toggle the input method on and start typing.
Environment
  • OS: Arch Linux rolling; kernel 6.11.0-modified-dirty
  • Browser: Chromium
  • Browser Version: 129.0.6668.42 (Official Build) Arch Linux (64-bit)
Anything else?
