I don't quite understand. I don't have a solution to the Chinese characters conundrum. In that other thread you kindly helped me find the 3 decimal places files, and I'd found another way so I took the time to spell it out in case it would be useful for anyone else searching in the future. Then I posted this thread about a separate question. Then I linked to this thread to you, and you only, just because were were already communicating and you seemed very knowledgable about regex. I _really_ want to find out how to get rid of the Chinese lines in all my lyrics, but I've searched high and low and cannot find a way. Hence this thread. I only mentioned it to you in in the other thread as I was already writing a post to thank you and just thought I'd add that in. Anyway, this is why. This is [what I see on my phone's music player] ![grafik](https://community.mp3tag.de/uploads/default/original/2X/1/1bbe7e1e10aca0f5ca4d41a17faea59e14ff828e.jpeg) Can anyone help me on this please? I'll be so grateful. --- _[View the full topic](https://community.mp3tag.de/t/regex-how-can-i-remove-lines-with-chinese-characters-from-the-lyrics-field/59441)._
