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.
Discord searching is more better than telegram, we need this.

In addition, the longer the history, the more complete words or whole sentences are needed as matches,For example, sending the phrase "ABCDE",Search for "A" on the first day and you will find this sentence,, If it is half a year later, I need to enter the whole sentence to be able to.

Yes, all languages without space being a word separator have search issues in Telegram. This is a big drawback for CJK users.

his is definitely necessary. Telegram has a very large and rapidly growing user base in East Asia, especially in China and HK. Improving search support for East Asian languages will vastly benefit not only the users, but also Telegram itself.

Please don’t send messages that don’t help others understand this issue, such as "We need it!"
You can describe how this issue affects languages not mentioned in other comments.

It’s a useful functionality in social apps, especially telegram is a cloud base apps, it will be great it having search ability.
If support fuzzy search will definitely better.
Current searching is not working for partial word, for example:
Log in here to report bugs or suggest features. Please enter your phone number in the international format and we will send a confirmation message to your account via Telegram.
