It seems that Chinese is the only major language in which the term "Unicode" needs to be translated rather than transliterated. It may be time to gather up current usage and select an "official" translation, and perhaps to bless one or more informal ones. We have collected these candidates so far: 統一碼 tongyi ma unified/unification code 單碼 dan ma unit code (標準)萬國碼 (biaojun) wanguo ma (standard) multinational code 國際碼 guoji ma international code Please let us know if you have found these or other terms in actual current usage. Or, if you have another suggestion, even better than all those. Note that the goal here is simply to find the distinctive translation for the term "Unicode", not to designate any other international or Chinese standards related to Unicode. Joe
