Features: The word selection of this dictionary targets the 3,500 characters that students must master during the compulsory education stage. There are three major differences between this dictionary and ordinary dictionaries: First, the arrangement is different from other dictionaries. This dictionary categorizes characters based on their radical or phonetic component, which facilitates readers in recognizing and understanding characters by analogy. Second, each character is followed by a "Recognition Method," which explains the character based on methods such as phono-semantic compounding, making it easier to understand. Third, the annotations in the dictionary are concise and consider the readers' level, with explanations that are simple and easy to understand.
