Features: This dictionary includes over 1,300 common words, primarily disyllabic words. In terms of part of speech, it focuses on commonly used verbs and adjectives, with a limited inclusion of nouns, adverbs expressing manner, and idioms. Words that are common but extremely basic are excluded. The entries in this dictionary are arranged in the order of Pinyin alphabet, with an index of Pinyin word lookup provided before the main text. The dictionary uses standard Pinyin pronunciation based on Putonghua, with each entry's pronunciation written according to the basic rules of Pinyin orthography, without tones for neutral tones. Since part of speech is closely related to word collocation, this dictionary uses symbols such as 、, 、, etc., to indicate whether a word is a verb, adjective, noun, adverb, or idiom.
