## Description

MDBG is an online Chinese-English learning resource designed to help users look up vocabulary and study Mandarin more effectively. Its dictionary draws on CC-CEDICT content and supports searches using Chinese characters, Mandarin Pinyin, or English. Learners can choose simplified or traditional Chinese and use search options for whole words, word beginnings or endings, partial matches, exact phrases, and wildcard patterns. Pinyin can be entered with or without tone numbers, and ü can be typed as v.

Beyond dictionary lookups, MDBG offers tools for translating text, practicing Chinese, creating vocabulary lists, and adding annotations that display Chinese characters, Pinyin, and English definitions. Users can adjust how much information appears inline or in popups, explore examples and help, and practice characters with a Chinese character quiz. The site also provides Windows, macOS, and mobile versions, along with Chinese forums and links to further resources. MDBG invites donations and asks users to link to the service, while noting that automated or scripted access is prohibited.
