This Pocket Dictionary is an indispensable companion for visitors to
China and for anyone in the early stages of learning Chinese. It contains
all the 12,000 or so Chinese words that are most commonly encountered
in colloquial, everyday speech.
For the sake of clarity, only the common Chinese equivalents for each
English word have been given. When an English word has more than one
possible meaning, with different Chinese equivalents, each meaning is
listed separately, with a clear explanatory gloss. The layout is clear and
accessible, with none of the abbreviations and dense nests of entries
typical of many small dictionaries.
The language represented in this dictionary is Modern Standard
Chinese, which is also commonly known in English as Mandarin, and in
China as Putonghua (literally “Modern Standard Chinese”) and Taiwan
as Guoyu (literally “national speech”).
