resource request

Anyone have an English-Chinese (probably Mandarin) online translation site?

I've found Wordlook, which shows the Pinyin spelling, and that might do for a bit, I'm just wondering if there are any others.

Specifically, it's for a Firefly fic, so any Firefly-related resources would be welcome.

ETA: While I'm at it, a beta who knows Firefly reasonably well would also be very welcome.

I don't know for sure, but one of my friends said there's a Firefly website that lists every Chinese phrase in the series and the English translation. That could be a good place to jump off from, but I have no idea where it is.

Well, there this: http://fireflychinese.home.att.net/index.html

Also, I like http://zhongwen.com/ for general translations.

Thanks!

I was hoping for the pinyin without the numbered inflections, but this will definitely do.

If you want, I'll beta. I've seen everything but the movie. And have been spoiled on that.

Ooh, that would be great!

Will send it to you when I'm done the first draft - hopefully today or tomorrow.

the weather has officially eaten my brain. I swear, the DVD's are sitting in pride of place, waiting to be collected and sent through to you - but I keep forgetting them.

LOL. Thanks for remembering: was wondering if I missed them yesterday!

no, you didn't. Chris was sick as a dog yesterday and didn't go to work, so no chance yesterday. And to day my brain was left (apparently) on the pillow in the bedroom.

Bloody brain.
