Thanks for notifying me of this problem. Can you go into more detail about the typo and how the documentation should read instead? I don't read Chinese, so all I can do is provide a contributed translation.

I took another look at this using machine translation and I still don't understand what the right text is. I got the following English for the Chinese in the initial issue comment:

But the parser itself is `time` different, here it should be `yes`

So I think Keelung Yang is saying that the 时 character in the first sentence of that section should be replaced with the 是 character.

The English version of the phrase being translated is: "Beautiful Soup presents the same interface to a number of different parsers."

Google Translate and Bing Translate both translate 的接口 as "interface" (a translation that has been confirmed by humans, according to Google) and 是接口 as "is the interface". When translating the entire phrase, or the entire paragraph, there is no difference in the translation. This is a subtle difference and I don't know whether the documentation would be better with the change or as is.

Since I don't read Chinese I'm leaving this issue alone for now. If anyone fluent in Chinese stumbles on this issue, please advise.

I got a retranslation of that whole paragraph from Jeffery Xu, and committed it as revision 347cefbe76cc70bd99dc6b5f0274189cdb94bbb9. Jeffery confirmed the change in the original issue but also suggested other changes.
