Look up a Chinese word
look_up_wordLook up one Chinese word or character in the Dengdeng Chinese–English dictionary. Returns the simplified and traditional forms, tone-marked pinyin for each reading, the English meanings, the HSK 3.0 band, measure words, and, when the word has them, two example sentences with pinyin and English, an audio URL and a short cartoon. Also returns the URL of the word's dictionary page and links to its sections: the cartoon, stroke order, example sentences and, for some words, a slang, idiom or measure-word guide. Use it for questions such as “what does 加油 mean” or “how do you pronounce 银行”. The word must be written in Chinese characters; use search_dictionary for pinyin or English. It looks up dictionary entries only and does not translate sentences.
