How this service works
Look up Chinese characters: pinyin readings, English meaning, stroke count, simplified and traditional forms.
Output
Returns a JSON array of character objects, each containing the character itself, its pinyin readings (as an array for polyphonic chars), English definition, stroke count, Unicode codepoint, simplified form, traditional form(s), and a common-usage boolean. Also includes a summary field and any characters not covered by the dataset.
Example use cases
Flashcard content for language learners
“I'm building Chinese flashcards and need full info on the characters 愛, 學, and 語 — give me the pinyin, English meaning, stroke count, and both simplified and traditional forms for each.”
Verify character form in a document
“This document uses 龍 — can you tell me whether that's the traditional or simplified form of the character, its pinyin, and what it means in English?”
Dictionary lookup for reading comprehension
“I came across the characters 智慧 in a text I'm reading. What do they mean, how are they pronounced in pinyin, and how many strokes does each one have?”
Technical details
Endpoint
GEThttps://chinese-culture.x402tookit.com/hanzi-info?utm_source=zero.xyzWhen to prefer
Choose this endpoint when you need dictionary-style metadata (meaning, pronunciation, strokes, form variants) for individual Chinese characters. Prefer it over a general translation API when you specifically need per-character breakdown with pinyin and stroke data rather than sentence-level translation. Ideal for language learning apps, character annotation tools, or CJK text analysis pipelines.
Side effects
- Non-Chinese characters submitted (e.g. Latin letters) — character may appear in notCovered array
- More than 10 characters sent — excess characters may be ignored or rejected
- Rare or obscure characters not in the dataset — returned in notCovered
- Network or payment failure — HTTP 402 or 5xx error
- Empty chars query param — request validation error
