Hi, can anyone recommend a good chinese translator/reader tool similar to the MDBG reader but free? TIA
Try cidianreader (http://cidianreader.com) it is free and supports selecting the text with the mouse and popup the meaning, is that what you want?
Have you tried our browser plugin for Firefox?http://popupchinese.com/tools/plugin
Hi yes I already have the FF plugin for reading websites. For me the main use is for Yahoo QQ and MSN. I had tried the MDBG reader but it doesn't work with MSN. I'm giving the cidianreader a try now and it seems to work in all these programs, but you need to highlight each word to get the Chinese meaning, I guess that is not bad since it's free, but I would prefer to just mouse over, for speed. Is there any chance of getting the FF plugin to work with external programs?
