Chinese

The textual corpus used in BuddhaNexus was obtained from the Chinese Buddhist Electronic Text Association (CBETA).

The minimum length for a match has been set to six characters. However, five-character matches are occasionally also detected due to our policy of “approximate matches” rather than exact ones. Matches consisting to a large degree of frequent fixed terms have been filtered out from the results.
