ddxue Posted June 7, 2010 at 07:11 PM Report Share Posted June 7, 2010 at 07:11 PM Are there any IME's that allow for the displaying of pinyin above Chinese characters that I don't recall off the top of my head, for example if I hover over a character or highlight a character? It would a lot quicker to read the pinyin that pops up than copying and pasting the character into an online dictionary. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jbradfor Posted June 8, 2010 at 12:36 AM Report Share Posted June 8, 2010 at 12:36 AM I don't follow. An IME is a system for entering characters. If you don't know the pinyin or the characters, how can you enter it? Are you asking for a way to hover over text and it will show the meaning and the pinyin? If so, read this thread.

ddxue Posted June 8, 2010 at 02:01 AM Author Report Share Posted June 8, 2010 at 02:01 AM Sorry for any confusion, I was somehow thinking that an IME would bundle that functionality as well. Thanks a lot for the link though, I'll check it out! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
roddy Posted June 8, 2010 at 02:07 AM Report Share Posted June 8, 2010 at 02:07 AM There's also this. However I suspect you actually want one or another of the popup translation options. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ddxue Posted July 4, 2010 at 02:46 AM Author Report Share Posted July 4, 2010 at 02:46 AM I recently switched to Chrome from Firefox cause it's so much faster than Firefox and I found the "Zhongwen: A Chinese-English Popup Dictionary" extension is pretty good.
