<p>Many questions on this site concern various modern slang/dialect usages that require fairly extensive (and sometimes still unsuccessful) searches through the web.  Every time I think about these questions, I wonder about whether, if I were a Chinese person dealing with similar weirdnesses in English, I would find <a href="http://www.urbandictionary.com" rel="noreferrer">the Urban Dictionary</a> very useful (I find it useful even as an English-speaking person dealing with all the weirdnesses of English).  </p>

<p>Does such a crowdsourced "database" of colloquial Chinese usages exist on the Internet?  Is there any such good one-stop online place to do searches on Chinese slang?</p>

Not that I know about. I even think that I should make one. As a native speaker, I encounter new slangs online very often as well. And I found that most of the time I got to Baidu them.

Is There A Chinese Version of Urban Slang Dictionary?
# Is There A Chinese Version of Urban Slang Dictionary?

(Asked by: username_0 on 2015-03-07)

Many questions on this site concern various modern slang/dialect usages that require fairly extensive (and sometimes still unsuccessful) searches through the web. Every time I think about these questions, I wonder about whether, if I were a Chinese person dealing with similar weirdnesses in English, I would find [the Urban Dictionary](http://www.urbandictionary.com) very useful (I find it useful even as an English-speaking person dealing with all the weirdnesses of English).

Does such a crowdsourced "database" of colloquial Chinese usages exist on the Internet? Is there any such good one-stop online place to do searches on Chinese slang?
