Features: The words included in this dictionary are selected from recent primary and secondary school Chinese textbooks. Under each entry, there are generally 10 aspects of content, including: pronunciation, part of speech, definition, connotation, synonyms, antonyms, collocations, usage, correct pronunciation, and correct form. The "connotation" section not only helps you understand the positive or negative emotional connotation of the word but also lets you know the appropriate register it should be used in, so as to avoid rhetorical errors like "Today is my birthday."
