Way to have list of the words
Hi,
Is there any way or given services to validate one given English word is fine in spelling? Or is there any other way to validate one Simplified/traditional Chinese word is correct or not, or to return on traditional Chinese word, per gien one simplified Chinese word, or vice versa?
Or is there any such list, for full of English word, simplified Chinese word and traditional Chinese word, available?

I expect to have the relevant list of English words and all Chinese in Simplified and Traditional style.

Online or there is a Windows application that can verify one word at a time. You can use it inside Notepad or Wordpad as well.

In Hong Kong, we do use English words and all Chinese in Simplified and Traditional style.
The workflow is to have a Traditional Chinese and/or English version first.
Then, do a spell check and language check using the built-in MS tool in MS Office for each language on its own.
If Simplified Chinese is required, do a Traditional Chinese to Simplified Chinese conversion with MS Office and read and check whether the converted text is having the same meaning of the Traditional Chinese one.
I.T. tool is just an assistant, the writer language skill is needed all the times for good writing.

Is there a way to get full list of Chinese in Simplified and Traditional style, and also the list of full English words?
What do you mean by full list of Chinese in Simplified and Traditional style, and also the list of full English words?
ASKER
Whatever words available to both languages
You mean to do a spelling and grammar check for a text with English words and all Chinese in Simplified and Traditional style in one go?
ASKER
Yes
And I expect to have a mapping list of whatever Chinese words. You know, one Simplified Chinese is equivalent to one Traditional Chinese.

One example of a "word list" for English is the LibreOffice dictionary. But I haven't found useful word lists for Chinese words yet.
Reviewing some open source spell check or dictionary projects to see if Chinese is supported seems like the best chance. I've seen a couple, but not yet with "word lists" that I could access easily.

The builit-in proofing and spell check tools from MS Office may help you. However, you need to check one language at a time and will certainly help you for a text with mixed languages.
Apart from the above, the Chrome extension below might help you.

Finally, there are always expensive dictionary and translation software which can help but they also not working properly for text with mixed languages.
