annekeAnna Posted July 29, 2010 at 07:29 AM Report Posted July 29, 2010 at 07:29 AM Dear All, Let me introduce to you WikIdioms (Welcome to WikIdioms | WikIdioms) - a crowd-source project of multilingual translation of idioms, phrasal verbs, expressions and other kinds of collocations. The site contains now circa two thousand expressions in several languages and is rapidly growing due to the efforts of our fellow translators. I invite you to visit the site and use it for your needs, or even contribute! Regards, Anna Quote
tooironic Posted July 29, 2010 at 11:03 AM Report Posted July 29, 2010 at 11:03 AM A URL and some examples of Chinese/English content would be nice. I Googled it but haven't found much Mandarin so far... Quote
annekeAnna Posted July 29, 2010 at 11:14 AM Author Report Posted July 29, 2010 at 11:14 AM Hi, TooIronic! Thank you for your comment. This is a url: http://www.wikidioms.com/ The project is very young and developers working on task that will allow to browse by "Chinese" language. Since we currently rely only on the efforts of the volunteers, it would be glad if you could contribute to the project.. You can do contribute new Chinese idiom by clicking on "Contribute new idiom!", it will be saved to the database and everyone will see it soon. Regards, Anna Quote

tooironic Posted August 3, 2010 at 01:11 AM Report Posted August 3, 2010 at 01:11 AM I think you misunderstood my English. Definition of "not to mention". Quote
