hey gang,
does anyone know a good (free) site to go to when you want to know what the chinese word is for an English word? I want to know the chinese word for "SPIDER" but can't seem to find a good site that will tell me. Any suggestions for my future fan fict story needs?
thanks in advance,
LarryL

I like primezero. It has both direct translations and idiomatic expressions.

Below is the link for spider.

Keep in mind, though, that you don't necessarily need the phoentic symbols. There's a great fan on the boards here, Lithi, who is a professional translationist, and terrific at that. Everything she sends me is always sans the phoenetics. Not to mention, although most computers are set up to read them, not all of them are. Wouldn't wanna go confuzzling your readers.

I'm bookmarking that Primezero site, though. Great as Lithi is, I feel kinda silly sometimes asking for a single word.

Thanks for sharing!
