As in, the string is written in Chinese language, not Japanese language, not old Korean/Vietnamese text that use Chinese character, nor any other languages that use Chinese characters. According to my knowledge, some Chinese dialects/variants also use both Simplified and Traditional characters together with different etymology and that probably shouldn't be considered as mixed script too, although they aren't really common and is not mentioned in the UTS either.

That clearly indicates the language isn't Chinese. So in this example we can algorithmically rule out that its Chinese. Usually when there are Japanese kana in the mix then the text would be Japanese instead of Chinese. However the reverse is not necessarily true, especially for a single word or short pharse, older styled text and such, where a string with only Chinese characters can still be a Japanese text. > > And what does Chinese really mean here? > The written form of the (Mandarin) Chinese language?
