How to flag an alphanumeric field if it contains Chinese characters

[ckaushik001]

I have a description column in the dataset. The description contains alphabet, numbers and special characters. I just need to flag the descriptions that contains Chinese characters.

IMPORTANT: The description contains characters from other languages as well (like Spanish). I just need to flag Descriptions with Chinese characters.

Sample Data:

Fidelización GM01
03651 CHALLENGE CUP GUAM (BR)
POST INTEGRATION (FINANCE)
03255 CUSTOMER SURVEY FIFE
75100 H25 TAX SYSTEM REFORM
50815 FATCA PROJECT

@ckaushik001 One way of doing this with the regex count match function

IIF(REGEX_CountMatches([Data], '[^ -~]') > 0, 'Y','N')

Hi @ckaushik001, try this:

[ -~]+

Based on this post, we can use "[^\x00-\x7F]" to represent any non-ascii characters which equals to non-english character in this case, I hope😁

@binuacs , @gabrielvilella @Qiu thanks for the prompt reply guys! This is flagging even the Spanish characters (all non-English characters). I just need to flag descriptions containing Chinese characters. I am updating the sample dataset for your reference. I am sorry I have been trying multiple combinations of REGEX patters but no success so far.. ☹️

@ckaushik001 One way of doing this with the Regex_Replace method, you need to add all the Chinese characters in the function like below

I think we can do it by unicode.

 but strangelly, the \x30A0-\x30FF are supposed for Katagana only but somehow it works in alteryx. 
At least it works for your sample data for now.
