Not sure if youre complaining, but let me clarify: Babelcarp (note the
spelling) defines *tea terms*. It isnt a general purpose Chinese
dictionary.

Yeah, that would be great. But the Web applications available now cant
even turn workaday Chinese prose into coherent English. Its a *very*
hard problem.
