Abstract

Our study aims to shed light on the topics related to sentiment analysis in the Chinese language due to its importance in increasing this type of study due to the scarcity of studies on sentiment analysis, especially in the Chinese language. In this study, we used a systematic, plyometric approach for its effective role in analysing the current state of sentiment analysis research in the Chinese language. In this study, we will find three main stages based on the analysis of previous research in this field. In the first stage, we study the challenges facing researchers by analysing feelings in the Chinese language, including the lack of access to a comprehensive lexicon. In the second stage, we discuss the motives that underlie the growing importance and potential impact of sentiment analysis in Chinese. Finally, we make recommendations that help guide future research in the same field to improve the accuracy and reliability of sentiment analysis tools in Chinese.
