Improve the ability to search chat history for Asian regional languages, such as Chinese and Japanese. Telegram's chat history search function is based on words, and is suitable for languages such as English and Russian that are separated by spaces. But for languages that do not use spaces for word segmentation, you need to match the entire sentence to get the search results, which makes the search function of some languages almost unusable. I hope Telegram can improve this feature so that it can search languages that do not use spaces to separate words.
No even with English keywords, Telegram's conversation search is for some reasons trash right now.
Even if you go to the list of your Links or others, you tap and hold on that and tap the Eye icon (See on Chat) it doesn't launch or open that link or media to that certain Chat.
Something is very wrong with the database indexing right now on Telegram

Please also add ability for partial search, currently it searches only whole words.

Very much agreed, searching is hell right now for any language that uses conjugation.

It is a long issue but they don't care about Asian.

Maybe should just add a toggle while searching to select search whole words or any matching characters

Asian is not their target user as this bug keeps raising by the users for more than 7 years and they did nothing. I am finding an alternative. The best instant message app with an annoying bug, how pity is it. I don't know why DrKLO said that it is wrong while other competitors like Whatsapp, Wechat, Line and more others have already fixed this.
If they don't care some other developers gone work on it because Telegram is open source document.

Same problem for Korean! Interestingly, partial word search seems to work for Latin characters

this needs comparing char to char , which is very cpu expensive compared to word to word search , i think this is why they haven't added yet . when telegram earns enough money through ads i hope they consider spending some money for additional cpu power for this feature .... whatsapp and others have this because the chats are local stored and your phone cpu itself does the processing , telegram will need to process many channel as groups with millions of messages for each query
