What can Pistachio Search do?

Find and copy approved translations from your own Excel terminology lists.

Import Excel term lists
Drop one or more .xlsx workbooks onto the page, or click the import area. Sheets need a Native column and a Translation or Approved Translation column. One term means one row with both values filled in, regardless of how many words or characters it contains. Duplicate rows count separately.
Search as you type
Paste or type Chinese, English or numbers to search Native terms, translations and Simplified aliases. Traditional and Simplified Chinese are matched together. Separate terms with spaces or commas to find results matching any of them. Searches run in the background so you can keep typing; results always follow your latest query.
Find the closest matches
Exact matches come first. Repeated Native matches count once toward ranking, while every occurrence stays highlighted. Each parenthesis and comma counts at most once per column, including full-width equivalents. Rows matching words or Chinese characters rank above rows matching only those punctuation marks. Digits still count. Select a row to see its matching count or exact-match label beside the total number of results. The table displays up to 100 results.
Keep your place
Pasting or starting to type in an empty search box returns the table to the top. Continuing to type, deleting, clearing, undoing and redoing preserve your position where the results allow.
Select the search text
Click 全选 above the search box to toggle it. Green: a single click in the search field selects all text; a double-click selects a word normally. Red: normal text selection. It starts off. The × button clears your search.
Expand a long search
Click the double arrow beside × to show all your search text. The first line stays in place and extra lines extend downwards. The box fits the text and browser width without an internal scrollbar; click again to collapse it. While expanded, ↑/↓ move through your text and Alt+↑/↓ select results.
Copy with the mouse
Click a Native or Translation cell to copy it. Drag across part of the text and release to copy just that selection.
Copy with the keyboard
Press ↓ in the collapsed search bar to select the first result, or ↑ to select the last. When expanded, use Alt+↓ or Alt+↑ instead; plain arrows move through your text. Use ↑/↓ in the table to move between rows and Enter to copy the selected translation. Press Esc, or ↑ on the first row, to return to the search bar.
Manage your workbook library
Drag a nine-dot handle to reorder files (or focus it and press ↑ / ↓). Search on/off includes or excludes a workbook without removing it; this setting and file order are saved locally. Search covers every enabled workbook.
Add symbols and numbering to copied text
The buttons left of 全选 change the text you copied. The trash can clears it. The wide space-bar button removes every space, tab and line break, so 资产 and 损益 on two rows become 资产损益. The ☆ button opens symbols: each one is added in front of your copied text with a space, so 资产 becomes ▲ 资产. The green : is added to the end instead. The 1., (1) and ➀ pickers work the same way; each shows one number, so scroll over it or use ‹ / › to change it. Clicking several in a row keeps them in click order, so △, 4. then (7) on 资产 gives △ 4. (7) 资产. With nothing copied, a click copies the symbol itself. Your browser may ask once for permission to read the clipboard.
Filter by workbook
Use ‹ / › beside Sheet to cycle through All files and each enabled workbook in library order. The label below shows the selected filename (hover for the full name). Filtering searches that file before limiting the table to 100 results. Disabling or removing the selected file returns to All files.
Work with cells and columns
Right-click a cell for Edit, Undo and Save options. Drag the right edge of the Sheet heading to resize that column.
Use it offline
Your terminology stays in this browser; nothing is uploaded. Imported workbooks are remembered locally for your next visit. Clearing browser data can remove that library. Pistachio Search looks up your approved translations—it does not generate automatic translations or overwrite your original Excel files.
