I think this might be exactly what you're looking for. This is a free talking English - Chinese

dictionary where you can look up words by English, Pinyin or simplified Chinese. You can listen to

the pronunciation spoken by native Mandarin Chinese speakers by scrolling over or clicking on the

pinyin.

I haven't visited all of the links above so this isn't intended as a comment on any particular

site, but be careful with online talking dictionaries as most simply generate the sounds by

stringing together the pinyin character by character. This can be useful for a quick reference,

but if it is your primary learning tool it can be misleading because:

(1) recordings that are spliced together do not actually sound like spoken mandarin

(2) duoyinci are pronounced wrong.

(3) tone sandhi is ignored

(4) the light (fifth tone) is ignored

An easy test is looking up a word like 孩子 and seeing if the character 子 is presented as the

fifth or third tone, and seeing what happens to the recordings of words like 数 when they mean

different things contextually.
