As a handy reference, the Unicode Consortium here provides a search interface to the Unicode Hàn (漢) Database (Unihan).
The Unihan Database organizes information relating to the properties of CJK Unified Ideographs. Unihan Database Documentation is available in UAX #38.
For production reasons, the version of the Unihan database available via this lookup tool may not yet be in sync with the latest version of the Unicode Standard. For access to the most recent version of the raw data files (Unihan.zip), see http://www.unicode.org/Public/UCD/latest/.
the “readings” portion of the db has some surprisingly interesting data. basically it’s a short concise dictionary for Cantonese, Mandarin, Japanese, Vietnamese and Korean characters. there are over 23,000 definitions (in total).
here’s a sample from that database:
