The total number of words in both are very low. Are there any resources with more words?

<p>nciku.com has images for many of its entries (not the majority by any means, but most common nouns have images). There's also a 'theme words' section where all of the entries have images, categorised by subject (e.g. food, sports, clothing etc)</p>

<p>The <strong>Yale Picture Dictionary</strong> has a <a href="http://classes.yale.edu/chns130/Dictionary/index.html" rel="nofollow">version for Chinese</a>.  This is a small dictionary for learners.  It has basic words organized into categories (such as colours, animals, etc.).  This is a dictionary to find new words to learn, not a dictionary to look up things in.</p>

<p>I have not used the Chinese version much (yet!), but I did use the Greek version extensively in the past and found it quite useful as a beginner.  It is designed in a way so you can also use it in a similar way to flashcards ("do I remember what to call this thing in this picture")?</p>

<hr>

<p>There is a similar illustrated vocabulary collection at <strong><a href="http://www.languageguide.org/mandarin/vocabulary/" rel="nofollow">LanguageGuide.org</a></strong>, just suggested to me by a friend.  I have not used this (yet).</p>

The **Yale Picture Dictionary** has a [version for Chinese](http://classes.yale.edu/chns130/Dictionary/index.html). This is a small dictionary for learners. It has basic words organized into categories (such as colours, animals, etc.). This is a dictionary to find new words to learn, not a dictionary to look up things in.

I have not used the Chinese version much (yet!), but I did use the Greek version extensively in the past and found it quite useful as a beginner. It is designed in a way so you can also use it in a similar way to flashcards ("do I remember what to call this thing in this picture")?
