Features: The Selected English-Chinese and Chinese-English Dictionary (3rd Edition) has been revised based on the previous version, with many new words and meanings added. These new words and meanings reflect the new developments and changes in various aspects of contemporary society, politics, economy, science and technology, culture, etc. The Chinese-English section includes many new words and meanings selected from dictionaries published by the Commercial Press, such as the Modern Chinese Dictionary (2002 Supplement Edition) and the Xinhua New Words Dictionary. The English-Chinese section's new words and meanings are sourced from the Oxford English Corpus. This large-scale English corpus is the primary source of data for all Oxford English dictionaries. The revision of the English-Chinese section also benefits from the online version of the Oxford English Dictionary (OED). The 3rd edition maintains and enhances the features of the previous version—concise, practical content and clear, well-organized layout—making it an authoritative reference for Chinese learners of English and foreign learners of Chinese.
