I have become skilled at English-Chinese translation using Google Translate, and know the tricks to checking that the translation is accuate.

Google Translate does an amazing job with seemingly complex text (e.g. translating articles from Wikipedia). However, it does not always get the simple, everyday things right - it translated by young Aussie-Chinese son's name "Kim" as "Kim-ll-sung", hardly what I meant!

Here is a very interesting link to China's male Champion, Wang Hao (Last FIDE rating: 2743)

And also to Hou Yifan, China's young female champion (only 14 years of age) and who has had a win over Nigel Short.

 On the current FIDE rating list (women) Hou Yifan has shot to the third place with a rating of 2571, only behind Judit Polgar (HUN, 2693) and Humpy Koneru (IND, 2621). We do not wish to indulge in debating the gender question in chess, but it would seem that Magnus Carlsen, the young phenomenon in the ‘male’ chess has a counterpart in the world of women’s chess.
