Features: This is a medium-sized comprehensive bilingual Chinese-Japanese language dictionary, containing over 55,000 entries. The entries primarily focus on general vocabulary, supplemented by some scientific and social science terms. The general vocabulary mainly consists of modern standard Chinese words, along with a certain number of idioms and proverbs. In addition to the main text, the dictionary also includes 17 bilingual Chinese-Japanese appendices such as the "Brief List of Names of Ethnic Groups in China." This dictionary is primarily intended for Chinese professionals engaged in Japanese teaching, research, translation, foreign affairs, and other fields, as well as a broad readership learning Japanese. For Japanese users, it is also an important reference tool for learning Chinese. The compilation of this dictionary is primarily based on China's newly published Modern Chinese Dictionary, while also referencing recent bilingual Chinese-foreign dictionaries and Japanese-compiled Chinese-Japanese dictionaries. Building on the achievements of these sources, it incorporates China's social realities and practical needs, striving for innovation in areas such as word selection, definitions, examples, format, and retrieval to better serve readers.
