reading.json, full.json and pronunciation.json are adaptations of CC-CEDICT and are available
under the same CC BY-SA 4.0 licence. They may be downloaded directly.
Changes: parsed into JSON; indexed by simplified and traditional Chinese;
reading.json contains entries matching the practice article text;
pronunciation.json contains one preferred pronunciation per Chinese headword;
definition separators have been changed from slashes to semicolons.
Original definitions in these JSON files have not otherwise been rewritten.
The reader selects one preferred pronunciation and displays up to four senses,
omits classifier/variant-reference metadata where possible, and formats embedded
pronunciation with tone marks. Full source definitions remain downloadable.

The separately authored practice articles and contextual learning notes are
not CC-CEDICT definitions.
