Please would it be possible to add a feature to the glossary whereby when you search a term you can add individual symbols straight to your vocabulary list?

For example, if I look up qi4 in the glossary it gives me a whole bunch of hanzi symbols including .

However, I don't see how I can add just to my vocabulary list.

If I click on it gives me a whole list of expressions such as

了.

不客.

Which, I admit, is pretty cool and extremely useful, however I can only add these to my vocabulary list as chunks or phrases.

Can ChinesePod.com add a feature whereby when the list of terms (for example, qi4) comes up, we can click a tab to add the selected symbols to our vocab lists?

The reason I ask is I'm trying to assemble a list of Hanzi symbols I know how to write.

Thanks.

I love everything that's going to help give me a leg up in my language studies.

Thank you Chinesepod!

It appears that lexus and lexical play such an unimportant role in the ChinesePod approach that they do not merit entries into the glossary.

I think it also suggests that there is a demand for a ChinesePod "After Hours" podcast to discuss our more prurient interests.  Though finding a host to discuss such things would probably be a challenge.

So the top glossary search is "sex."  What does that say about the average CPoddie?

I like the glossary too. I don't know if it is open source like the old dictionary was supposed to be? Probably not?
