Applications
Jun 03, 2013 Rikaichan is a free addon for Firefox that utilizes the WWWJDIC for translating Japanese in your browser. Since it's a Firefox addon, all Firefox needs is the files, so this should theoretically be a simple job, although it might be alittle tricky to realize at first. Download Rikaichan - View translations of Japanese words and expressions in real time, while browsing the Internet, with this handy Mozilla Firefox add-on. Incorporated changes from the official Rikaichan v2.02. Added audio support for Linux and Mac users. Version 10.0 - 2011 April 12. Sanseido Mode; Version 9.1 - 2011 April 02. Fixed the audio feature so that VC runtime errors don't occur. (Thanks nest0r for investigating this). Fixed audio sometimes not playing for single kanji.
Wenlin
Wenlin is a customizable and expandable Chinese-English dictionary, searchable Chinese text editor, Chinese text converter, and language learning tool. The dictionary is based on the comprehensive edition of the ABC Chinese-English Dictionary (2003), with concise, high-quality definitions for more than 10,000 hanzi and nearly 200,000 words and phrases, written with the learner of Chinese in mind. Wenlin 4 also incorporates the ABC English-Chinese Dictionary (2010). Supports more than 75,000 Unicode hanzi, along with more than 11,000 seal-script [篆書] characters. When no definition is available from the ABC dictionary, Wenlin draws from the Unihan database, which contains thousands of additional definitions (brief, but often useful) for individual hanzi.
Supports instant lookup and other useful features like lookup by component, an animated stroke-order box, audible pronunciations, and handwriting input. Wenlin 4's flashcards component supports words and phrases (i.e., not just individual hanzi).
MacKEY
The Chinese-English dictionary contains around 300,000 entries and supports instant lookup. Among many other useful language-learning features, KEY 5.x can display Hanyu Pinyin or various Cantonese transcriptions alongside Chinese character texts. Also includes a text-to-speech module.
Clavis Sinica
Runs in Java. Clavis Sinica is a text reader designed for students of Chinese. It features an integrated set of dictionary windows that together supply information about the radical and phonetic elements of the character, compounds that contain the character, lexical information, and so on. The more than 25,000 words and phrases in the dictionary include the vocabulary used in most college-level textbooks for Chinese. The flashcards tool allows you to drill yourself on the pronunciation and meaning of words and characters from any text, or the 800 most commonly used characters. Handles both Simplified and Traditional Chinese, as well as Unicode.
They also provide a variety of useful, free online Chinese Language Resources.
Le Grand Ricci Numérique
This is the monumental 'Le Grand Dictionnaire Ricci de la langue chinoise' published in 2001, the most encyclopedic Chinese dictionary in any Western language. The first digital version (2010) is a FileMaker database composed of 13,300 character entries and 280,000 words and phrases. Supports both simplified and traditional Chinese, as well as both Pinyin and Wade-Giles romanizations.
Utilities
Chinese Rewriter
Chinese Rewriter handles lexical differences between usage in mainland China and Taiwan. It uses dictionary files to process the lexical replacement, and the dictionaries can be edited by the user. It also has a 'Smart Conversion' function that can convert hanzi based on context.
Supports the application services feature in OS X. See: http://www.ideographer.com/chineserewriter/
Unihan Variant Dictionary
Free. Extends well beyond the variants listed in the Unihan database. This is a useful tool for anyone doing scholarly work on China, especially those working with old editions of texts.
Anki
Free, open-source. Damien Elmes' Anki is the best flashcard tool available on any platform. Don't waste your time with anything else. See the review at Fool's Flashcard Review.

Buddhist Texts
Thesaurus Literaturae Buddhicae (TLB) presents Buddhist literature sentence by sentence in four languages: Sanskrit, Chinese, Tibetan, and English. Unicode-based. As of May 2009, this project contains only nine texts, but they are important ones, including Śāntideva's Bodhicaryāvatāra and the Vimalakīrtinirdeśa sutra: https://www2.hf.uio.no/polyglotta/index.php?page=library&library=TLB
The full text of all 85 volumes of the Taishō canon [Taishō Shinshū Daizōkyō, 大正新脩大藏經] is available for search at the University of Toyko's SAT Daizōkyō Text Database: http://21dzk.l.u-tokyo.ac.jp/SAT/. Unicode-based. Preserves the printed Taishō text, line by line. Each line is preceded by the text number and then the Taishō volume, page, and line information. In addition, the SAT site is integrated with the Digital Dictionary of Buddhism project (see above) and the INBUDS (Indian and Buddhist Studies) database.

The Chinese Buddhist Electronic Text Association (CBETA) provides the Chinese volumes of the Taishō canon, along with a selection of Chinese historical texts from the extended canon [Shinsan Zokuzōkyō, 卍新纂續藏經]: http://www.cbeta.org/. The CBETA mirror that works best for downloads outside of East Asia is Dharma Drum Mountain [法鼓山]. The materials on the site exist in a variety of formats and encodings, including:
- Puji 普及 (Normal) ~ Preserves the printed Taishō text, line by line. Each line is preceded by Taishō volume, text number, page, and line information. Each scroll [卷] in the text is a separate document. UTF-8 and Big Five.
- App (named for Professor Urs App) ~ This format is the same as Normal, but the ends of the lines have been changed to coincide with the punctuation. In the Taishō information, the number in parenthesis after the line number indicates how many characters have been moved to the beginning of the next line. Not only does this make the text easier to read, but it also makes searches for compounds more reliable. Each text is a single document. UTF-8 and Big Five.
- PDF ~ Organized by paragraph. Each text is a single PDF document. UTF-8 only.
- XML ~ Requires an understanding of XML and the TEI standard. Each text is a single XML document. UTF-8 only.
Both the UTF-8 and Big Five documents use the same approach to 'rare' characters, i.e., characters that are not in their character set. If the character is a standard variant, then a 'normalized' form is used without comment. If it is not a standard variant, then a formula in brackets is used, like '[(序-予+林)/女]' or '[牛*宅]'. UTF-8 has a larger character set than Big Five, so there are fewer normalized forms in the UTF-8 documents. Only the XML documents indicate which characters have been normalized.
The downloads are organized by canon and volume [冊]. Each volume has an individual page with its own table of contents. You can reach them from the main index page:
http://w3.cbeta.org/index_list.htm [Dharma Drum Mountain]
There are seven sections. Click on the tabs to see a list of volumes in that section. Use the pop-up menus to select a format to download. Click on the title of each volume to go to its table of contents page, which lists the Taishō number and title for each text in the volume, along with the date of the most recent CBETA release, the number of scrolls in the text, and the dynasty and/or author/editor of the text. Click on the title of each text for an index of HTML pages for each scroll in the text (App format, Big Five encoding).
Note: Christian Wittern has created a group of Firefox search plug-ins for the SAT and CBETA databases, available here.
Here you can find the Rikai-chan mod, developed and programmed by the koohii.com user cb4960. Meanwhile it has a new name – Rikai-san. Fokker 100 digital aviation fsx cracked. (why not 様? Sounds mightier to me :P)
Lots of improvements and features were added to the original Rikai-chan addon for Firefox by polarcloud. Rikai-chan appears to be one of the most useful tools besides Anki SRS for Japanese learners (and indeed eases their lives!) If you have troubles, suggestions or demands you can post them into the comment section below, if you have a wordpress account or anything else that can log you in, or just in this thread, if you are a member of the koohii community already. If you have high demands and lots of “<3” left for cb4960 ask him for his bank account and give him some bucks and don’t be so greedy :P
Current Version:Download v13 (uses updated Rikai-chan v2.03 version)
Release Date: 3rd July 2011
Compatibility: Firefox 5.0 (and perhaps up to 7.0?) confirmed, all features work – for me at least.
Features/Major Improvements:
▲ Added EPWING Support!
▲ Support for JDIC audio. Hover over a word and press “F” to hear the audio for that word. (Linux/Mac users: mplayer must be installed).
▲ Sanseido Mode. This allows you to hover over a word like usual, but instead of the normal J-E EDICT translation, you will see the definition taken from the J-J sanseido dictionary site. Press the “P” key to toggle on/off.
▲ Additional save options in the Clipboard & Save options tab. See screenshot further down in this post. (This feature was originally merged from wrightak’s rikaichan mod).
▲ Ability to add cards directly to your Anki deck using Anki’s “Real-Time Import” plugin. Instructions on how to setup and use are further down in this post. (Linux/Mac users: you must have bash and python installed).
▲ “Super Sticky” mode. Allows you to only see the definition when you Ctrl-click on a word (as opposed to mousing over it). Press the “U” key to toggle on/off. Tip: Ctrl-Right click a word when it resides in a link (so you don’t follow the link).
▲ Clicking the Heisig label/number in the kanji view (via lookup bar, sticky mode, or “Click-to-popup” mode) now links to the corresponding RevTK study page.
