Chinese urban dictionary?
Is there a chinese version of urban dictionary?
I was listening to a comparative passage comparing “很苦” 和 "很寇“. Given the context, it wasn't hard to tell what the second word means. But it's not in any of my usual dictionaries (wenlin, mdbg, yellowbridge, kt-dict, pleco). So....is there any sort of C-E or E-C urban dictionary?http://www.chinasmack.com/glossary
Something like this ^ but searchable, and updated more regularly.

There is a similar chinese character named"抠”,pronounced as "kou",just same as "寇“,and we have word"很抠”,it means "非常抠门的“,to describe a stingy and selfish people.But I've never seen "很寇”.Hope I can help you.

‘很寇’, I Googled it. Maybe '寇' is not the correct character here, but pronunciation is right. I don't know where you find this passage. I think '很寇' is seldom used.

“很寇” it's dialect i guess. We have <汉语方言大词典>,it includes many common in use dialects in China, you can google it :)
