description: This dictionary ushers in a new era in Chinese lexicography. The first strictly alphabetically ordered and Pinyin-computerized dictionary, it offers the simplest and quickest way to look up a term whose pronunciation is known. Radical and stroke indexes are provided for those cases when pronunciation of a term is not known. Each entry provides Chinese characters, part of speech, environment (area and level of usage), definition in English, and, possibly, examples. An innovative typographical format packs more than 71,400 entries into a handy, portable size without any sacrifice of legibility.
