The problem is: check a single word if belongs to a given language character set. So I think I have to instantiate a RegExp with expression [\u4E00-\u9FFF] (for Chinese language) in order to test against the specified word. But it does not work? Is this a bug with unicode ranges?
"to use \ you must escape it otherwise the \ is not understood. \\u9FF"
According to documentation there is no need for escape. Also, Unicode chars work fine with no escape. The problem is the range used in character classes [ ].
For instance, this will work:
/[\u4EAA|\u4EAB]/
and this
/[\u4EAA]/
but not the range as it workes for regular characters.
