What version of Hugo are you using (hugo version
)?
$ hugo version hugo v0.102.0-DEV-15463f835bbadd6f86158b83cb1499721ae2269f linux/amd64 BuildDate=2022-06-16T07:51:58Z VendorInfo=mage
Does this issue reproduce with the latest release?
Yes
Currently, the reading time is computed as (p.wordCount + 212) / 213
for non-CJK languages, or (p.wordCount + 500) / 501
for CJK languages. See here.
It seems like a page is treated as CJK as long as at least one CJK character in it is recognized, and also hasCJKLanguage
is set to true in the config.
This obviously leads to incorrect reading times on pages with mixed CJK/non-CJK content: the reading time is computed as if the content was purely CJK even if there’s only e.g. a single Kanji somewhere in there.
