Pinyin

[ceilican]

Feature request from a user:

This is a very good program for most languages; however, I am learning Chinese and find it very difficult considering you do not have a pinyin option. Therefore it is much harder to learn how to speak it, despite the fact that it is helping me recognize characters. If you could add pinyin (perhaps when you click on the word first it goes to pinyin and then on the second click it goes to English) it would be very helpful and encourage me to use the program more.

I actually get round this by installing another extension which gives me detailed popup translations when hovering over Chinese text - Pinyin included.

Thanks! I have just forwarded your workaround to the user who requested the feature.
