Purpose
Similar to Template:JP but more generalized. Syntax is slightly different because meaning is a named parameter instead of a numbered parameter.
Usage
For most cases:
1: Language code (see Module:Translit for currently implemented ones)2: Original text3(optional): Romanizationhidelabel(optional): Set to y or 1 or something else to hide the language namemeaning(optional): Meaning (applied as tooltip)
For dual Simplified and Traditional Chinese:
1: Language code (zh)2: Simplified text3: Traditional text4: Romanizationmeaning(optional): Meaning (applied as tooltip)
If you need both Chinese scripts but do not want a romanization, just put two separate ones with zh-Hans and zh-Hant as the language codes.
An ltc code exists for Middle Chinese, but the regular zh, zh-Hans, and zh-Hant should be used instead with standard Hanyu Pinyin romanization unless the Middle Chinese pronunciation is specifically relevant to the article.
For recommendations on what romanization scheme to use, see Guidelines:Translations.
