Features: This dictionary focuses on common Chinese semantic vocabulary, with entries not aiming for comprehensiveness but rather including only frequently used Chinese words and newly emerged terms in recent years. In terms of Chinese-to-English translation, it strives to highlight the accurate translation of the same Chinese word in different contexts, showcasing the flexibility and diversity of translation to express nuanced meanings. Keywords in English example sentences are briefly annotated to help readers use them accurately in Chinese-to-English translation. The entries in this dictionary are divided into single-character and multi-character words. Multi-character words are listed under their corresponding single-character words. Words with similar meanings in multi-character entries are enclosed in parentheses and listed after the Pinyin of the main entry. Words that are identical in form, sound, and tone but differ in meaning are listed separately, with Arabic numerals (1, 2, 3) marked in the upper right corner of each entry to distinguish them. The entries are arranged in Pinyin alphabetical order.
