Retrieve the Cantonese(GuangDongHua) of Chinese character(HanZi).

Usually, it returns its Cantonese/spell. It includes more than 20,000 words (from Unicode.org Unihan.txt, version 4.1.0).

if not(I mean it's not a Chinese character), returns the original word;

tone => 1|0

default is 0. if tone is needed, plz set this to 1.

Unicode::Unihan, Lingua::Han::PinYin
