Hello,

I have been working on a document that mixes a little Chinese and more
of the rest English. How do I limit the scope of the Chinese module?
For example, I want Chinese to show up in the title, which is done by
loading the Chinese module. But the date of the document changed to
Chinese too, which I do not want.

Can I just use one or two Chines character at some certain place while
all the rest of the document remains not affected?

Thanks a lot.
