Here is a great
resource for visual learners. A Chinese Picture Dictionary. Lots of
categories with the word in English, hanzi, pinyin and an audio to
listen to for correct pronunciation. I found it very useful. There
are 52 catagories from Airplane to Weather. Fast to load and quick
and easy to look up. An excellent multimedia resource for learning
Chinese.
The about page has this
information
“The
Chinese Picture Dictionary is a multimedia courseware that aims to
expand the vocabulary of beginning-level Chinese language students.
The Chinese Picture Dictionary presents several hundred pictures
based on familiar settings of daily life. ..Each picture is
presented in an individual page, along with buttons students can
click to view the depicted vocabulary word written in Chinese script,
view the pronunciation spelled out in Pinyin romanization, and
view a sample sentence using the word. In addition, students
can listen to native speakers of the language pronounce the
word.
The Chinese Picture Dictionary originated from the fact that pictures have long been favored by language teachers as a learning tool. Because of their visual nature, they can say far more than words, and avoid the unnecessary use of translation. The thematic presentation of 20 pictures together aims to help Chinese language students to streamline their learning and knowledge of new vocabulary in an effective way.”
