<p>Yes, "submit" means "提交", and "update" means "更新". But I couldn't find "update" button in Twitter, Amazon and Linkedin. So that I couldn't take a screenshot.

<p>At the bottom of a web form, you might click update, or submit. I was wondering what the Chinese word for 'submit' is, and if this is correct: 提交. Similarly, if there is a distinct word for 'update'.</p>
