@zhouzebiao Could you please provide fallowing details to resolve issue very quickly

1. version of chatterbot, to know chatterbot version python -m catterbot chatterbot.__version__
2. corpus data examples
3. example code snippet that produced erros

Read this documentation to fix python encoding issues http://chatterbot.readthedocs.io/en/stable/encoding.html#how-do-i-fix-python-encoding-errors

This Chinese article may solve your problem, http://blog.just4fun.site/create-a-smart-chat-bot.html, please read the section of "坑", it mention that might be a encoding problem in python2.
Without further ado, you may want to upgrade to python3

I get an error like this when I train Chinese

_sqlalchemy.exc.ProgrammingError: (sqlite3.ProgrammingError) You must not use 8-bit bytestrings unless you use a text_factory that can interpret 8-bit bytestrings (like text_factory = str). 
It is highly recommended that you instead just switch your application to Unicode strings. 
[SQL: u'SELECT "StatementTable".id AS "StatementTable_id", "StatementTable".text AS "StatementTable_text", "StatementTable".extra_data AS "StatementTable_extra_data" \nFROM "StatementTable" \nWHERE "StatementTable".text = ?\n LIMIT ? OFFSET ?'] [parameters: ('\xe5\x97\xb3\xef\xbc\x8c\xe6\xb8\xa1\xe8\xbe\xb9\xe5\x90\x9b\xef\xbc\x8c\xe7\x9c\x9f\xe5\x96\x9c\xe6\xac\xa2\xe6\x88\x91?', 1, 0)]_

Finally, I install the mongodb and set storage_adapter="chatterbot.storage.MongoDatabaseAdapter", then it works.
