… consider Google Translate – or Wikipedia.
Random Matters discusses a rather technical approach (too technical for me).
An apparently more mundane Wikipedia-Chinese approach was suggested by Junjie last year.
I’m sometimes wondering how people learned Chinese without the internet.
The code examples I gave were certainly technical, but the dictionary site I put up (maybe hidden between all the techy stuff) is not, just type: http://reganmian.net/en-zh/word and you’ll find all the translations containing word (or better yet, make it a Firefox keyword)

Thanks for another tool!
Howdie!
I have currently developed an application that performs a similar task, by tapping into the power of Wikipedia to translate terms across languages.
http://www.fredrocha.net/MemeMiner
For most of it’s articles, Wikipedia provides the equivalent expression of that concept in other languages.
With MemeMiner you can effortlessly find out how a certain idea is expressed across the language spectrum.
I’ve used some some AJAX / JSON / jQuery magic for the interface.
Go take a peek and let me know what you think!
