HanVietDictionary isn't a regular dictionary, it provides the meaning of individual words to encourage learners to combine meanings logically to understand the logic of compound words.
For Vietnamese learners of Chinese, HanVietDictionary is a great tool to find the Vietnamese readings of Chinese characters. Search for Chinese characters you are curious about and the various Vietnamese readings will appear to help you solidify your language learning in your native Vietnamese.
HanVietDictionary also supports native-Vietnamese words of non-Chinese origin. This is chữ Nôm. Curious learners can see how their ancestors wrote words and represented the Vietnamese language using Chinese-style characters.
