Features: This dictionary is a 21st-century dictionary for Communication and Information Technology (CIT), containing over 50,000 entries. It not only extensively collects new terms related to 3G, NGN, WLAN, and other fields since the 21st century but also carefully selects fundamental terminology from various periods of telecommunication technology development. It pays attention to including new technologies, services, and institutions emerging from telecom reforms worldwide, as well as new words and jargon in production, manufacturing, management, and other aspects.
In terms of its compilation style, the dictionary has many unique and carefully considered arrangements. For example:
- The translations are cautious and detailed, with efforts to indicate the origins of the terms.
- For new and potentially confusing terms, as well as those prone to mistranslation, the dictionary not only lists their translations but also provides explanatory notes or uses appendices to clarify them.
- It highlights differences between American English and British English and provides cross-references.
As a result, the dictionary features a high number of new terms, detailed annotations, extensive references, and convenient lookup.
This dictionary is a comprehensive and practical reference for Communication and Information Technology, serving as an essential tool for relevant technical personnel, university and college faculty and students, as well as professionals in maintenance, usage, management, and other fields.
