This dictionary based on HSK vocabulary, contains about 8,000 Chinese words and phrases. Definitions are written as clearly and concisely as possible, with more space devoted to words soaked in Chinese culture. The headwords and examples (either as word combinations and set phrases or as sentences) in the dictionary are all provided with Hanyu Pinyin.
Particular attention has been paid to ensuring that examples are taken from the everyday spoken language of the Chinese people. Words with multiple parts of speech constitute a distinct feature of the Chinese language; this dictionary has made an effort to mark all the headwords with their parts of speech, basing its endeavor largely on latest research findings in the compilation of Chinese dictionaries.
Measure words in Chinese prove to be another challenge for foreign learners; this dictionary provides a list of appropriate measure words for corresponding headwords that need such attributives and arranges them in the order of frequency in use.
This dictionary is useful, practical and resourceful for learners of Chinese, and is a must for those who intend to sit in for HSK tests.
