Extension summary
Based on the Zhongwen extension by C Shiller (https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/zhongwen-chinese-english/), this is a fork that adds Cantonese & Jyutping support on top of Pinyin.
All features from the original extension and a few extra ones focused on the Cantonese language are available:
- Supports both traditional and simplified characters.
- Includes both the CEDICT Chinese English dictionary as well as https://cantonese.org/download.html)[CC-Canto] dictionary.
- Shows Jyutping and Pinyin alongside characters.
- As a learning aid it uses different colors for displaying the Pinyin syllables, depending on the tone of the Chinese character.
- Can be turned on and off with a single mouse-click.
- Highlights the characters whose translation is displayed in the pop-up window.
- Also supports keyboard navigation for translating the next character, the next word, or the previous character.
- Allows you to add words to a built-in word list. Words from this list can be exported to a text file for further processing, such as importing the words into Anki.
- Includes links to grammar and usage notes on the Chinese Grammar Wiki.
- Supports exporting words to the Skritter vocabulary queue.
- Zhuyin display can be enabled
User reviews
So happy that this exists, as someone learning both Mandarin, Cantonese (and Hokkien, do you think you can add POJ too? :D)
Would be nice if JyutPing was also divided into colors depending on which tone a syllable has.
Nice work! I like how it can show both jyutping and pinyin while also including both traditional and simplified too. Ticks all the boxes. Extremely useful.
Very good, no other extension has the proper Cantonese. Brilliant my friend!
