Learning Chinese

[NextNoName]

To Fellow Forum Members and Visitors,

History cannot be without language.

The website www.linguaChina.net (http://www.linguaChina.net) may be of use to anyone who may not have a grounding in Chinese to learn the language to literate level, which is its purpose. Please include the website as a resource available to you for learning the language.

What sites do you find useful if you are learning Chinese or any other languages?

Sincerely.

The most complete Chinese-English dictionary I've seen on the internet is
http://dict.baidu.com/

Chinese-Chinese dictionary with Mandarin pronunciation, usage examples, etc.
http://140.111.34.46/dict/
(but for some reason, Taiwan's ministry of education are too cheap to pay for a domain name)

it's because they're a bunch of useless bastards.

not online stuff, but Besta brand electronic dictionaries and Oxford Chinese dictionary for palmpilot are great.

Another nice website to learn chinese (http://www.chinese-tools.com/learn/chinese) is the good old Chinese-Tools.com (http://www.chinese-tools.com).

A here is a nice chinese dictionary (http://www.chinese-dictionary.org) (multilingual, chinese vs 10 languages including english, french, spanish...)

For English speakers trying to learn Chinese, http://hmarty.free.fr/hanzi is hands down the best Mandarin dictionary I've found online, at least as far as the interface -- can query by English, Pinyin, and Chinese Characters (traditional or simplified). The only drawback is that, although it understands traditional, it only outputs simplified.

I also recommend http://zdt.sourceforge.net/. Installs on your local computer and can be used as dictionary or flashcard program.
