Hi Xiaoyi,

Do you know where to get a Chinese-character to pingyin dictionary?

We start to develop some stuff for TDT3, and would like to have
the following data (even in case the whole data set is not ready
yet, a few examples would certainly help debug and test):

(1) some stories in Chinese what would be in the TDT3
[before and after segmentation]
(2) some Chinese-English sentences from the parallel data corpus
[parallel at which level? sentence or paragraph or story?]

Thanks,

-Hubert
