https://docs.python.org/zh-cn/3.14/ is there and so is the URL page above, which I cannot read, and the mostly untranslated https://docs.python.org/zh-tw/3.14/library/stdtypes.html#dict, which I got to via the index page for 'D'.

I don't know how search works (and never use it, just indexes). Perhaps it uses external service -- someone else will have to say more.

See also python/python-docs-theme#291, this is a bug with Sphinx 9.

Please report directly to https://github.com/sphinx-doc/sphinx

In the meantime, we can pin to Sphinx<9.

Thanks for replay. I found the solution. In the file : python-3.14-docs-html/_static/language_data.js last line, the modified code is shown below and can now perform searches properly. // window.Stemmer = ChineseStemmer; ==> window.Stemmer=EnglishStemmer; At 2025-12-30 16:48:23, "Hugo van Kemenade" ***@***.***> wrote: hugovk left a comment (python/cpython#143284) See also python/python-docs-theme#291, this is a bug with Sphinx 9.
