Chinese Word of the Day


- Wen2 - Hear, Smell

新聞 - Xin1 Wen2 - New Hear — News

newsinchinese.com has very cool technology! Mouse over a word of phrase and it is translated into pinyin and English. Two things that I consider drawbacks: 1) the site is written in Simplified Chinese, 2) it is based on a feed from Xinhua, the Chinese government’s official news agency.

…drawbacks aside, It is neat. (A word that we overused long before we overused cool)

Glad you like it - I visited this page more than once while setting it up.

The technology itself isn’t that revolutionary, but I think the way we’ve slotted it together is kind of novel - combination of RSS, weblog software, open source dictionary, etc.

Have you seen Popjisyo? It’s kind of a simliar concept.
