chinese-english dictionary
about
word search
includes over 60000 translations, sorted by frequency of use
not intended as a comprehensive dictionary
excludes specialized vocabulary that only makes sense within its own framework, such as company names, religious terms, and obscenities
results are ranked by frequency and word length
for latin input, searches match pinyin and optionally translations if the "translations" checkbox is selected; the "split" checkbox is ignored
for chinese input, partial matches are returned; with "split" checked, input is segmented and exact matches are searched; "translations" is ignored
supports regular expressions, unless "split" is enabled for chinese input; "^word" matches word starts, "word$" matches word ends, "." is a wildcard
output may be truncated based on input length
results can be selected and copied as space-separated DSV, directly usable with spreadsheet software
character lookup
search by character or pinyin, with numeric tone marks
comma-separate multiple queries
for latin input, the "containing" and "contained" checkboxes have no effect
