This book is compiled to meet the needs of Chinese English learners.

The entries included in this dictionary, in addition to including headwords, phonetic transcriptions, parts of speech, inflectional forms, definitions, and examples, may also include phrases, idioms, collocations, synonyms, antonyms, explanations, derivatives, and language notes. It integrates the individual features of existing English-Chinese dictionaries and provides a wealth of information from different perspectives such as syntax, semantics, pragmatics, style, and cross-cultural communication. With its numerous functions, comprehensive coverage, and vast amount of information, it is truly pioneering among its domestic peers.
