Features: This dictionary is based on the "Modern Chinese Common Characters List" jointly released by the State Language Work Committee and the Press and Publication Administration of the People's Republic of China in 1988. It includes approximately 7,000 characters, with standardized fonts and a large capacity, covering most characters needed for daily work and study. Additionally, this book presents these 7,000+ characters in five standard calligraphic styles—regular script, running script, cursive script, clerical script, and seal script—along with a traditional Chinese character comparison for calligraphic reference. The five scripts are all meticulously crafted by several accomplished calligraphers, with well-structured layouts. The regular script is elegant and refined, the running script is graceful and upright, the cursive script is light and flowing, the clerical script is smooth and classical, and the seal script is solemn and round. It is an ideal companion for calligraphy enthusiasts. The dictionary is arranged in the order of stroke sequences, and the appendix includes a "Stroke Index" and a "Pinyin Index" for readers' convenience.
