Converting chinese to pinyin [closed]

Answer 1

possible solution using Python:

I think that Unicode database contains pinyin romanizations for chinese characters, but these are not included in unicodedata module data.

however, you can use some external libraries, like cjklib, example:

# coding: UTF-8
import cjklib
from cjklib.characterlookup import CharacterLookup

c = u'好'

cjk = CharacterLookup('T')
readings = cjk.getReadingForCharacter(c, 'Pinyin')
for r in readings:
    print r

output:

hāo
hǎo
hào

UPDATE

cjklib comes with an standalone cjknife utility, which micht help. some usage is described here
