```

Example prompt: Convert this simplified Chinese text to Taiwan Traditional (twp with idioms): '这个软件的功能非常强大，用户可以免费下载使用。'

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need fast, deterministic, keyless conversion of Chinese text between specific regional script variants (Mainland Simplified, Taiwan Traditional with/without idioms, Hong Kong Traditional, generic Traditional, or Japanese Shinjitai). Prefer it over LLM-based translation when you need consistent character-level script conversion without interpretation or paraphrasing. Ideal for localization pipelines, content management systems, or any workflow requiring region-specific Chinese script formatting.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid or missing 'from'/'to' variant code returns an error — must be one of: cn, tw, twp, hk, t, jp
- Empty or missing 'text' parameter causes a validation error
- Text exceeding 5000 characters is rejected
- Passing non-Chinese text may return unchanged or incorrectly mapped characters
- Same 'from' and 'to' variant returns text unchanged

## How this service works

Convert Chinese text between Simplified and Traditional scripts (and regional variants). from/to take: cn (Mainland Simplified), tw (Taiwan Traditional), twp (Taiwan w/ idioms), hk (Hong Kong Traditional), t (generic Traditional), jp (Japanese Shinjitai). E.g. from=cn to=tw. Deterministic, keyless (OpenCC mappings).

## Output

The converted Chinese text in the target regional script variant, transformed deterministically using OpenCC mappings with no API key required.
