On this Chinese-English dictionary site you can find pronounciations.
You can try searching for single syllables if you can't find the
entire Chinese word.

Check outhttp://nciku.comalso. Great site, and very helpful for
looking up characters / tones / pronounciation in a variety of different
ways (there's even a way to draw characters in and get selection of
possible matches).

I'm happy to learn about nciku.com! For my own character-
pronunciation needs (actually less important now that I'm studying
Chinese), I've used the pronunciation guides on
http://www.xuezhongwen.net/chindict/chindict.php Just type in the
pinyin (with or without tones), find the right characters, click, and
listen! It won't do phrases, but you can get each character and
string them together yourself.
