In addition to being a completely two-way translation guide "Chinese-English, English-Chinese", the Dictionary breaks from the conventions of a traditional alphabetical English dictionary and a Chinese dictionary that is organized by number of brush-strokes.
Instead, a more practical and useful approach is employed of categorizing words, terms, and phrases by situations of everyday usage. To this end, one hundred eighty nine separate categories were established to encompass a wide variety of situations that occur in normal day-to-day events.
Also, an Appendix section is provided to help English speaking users with Chinese pronunciation and language structure. With the recent emergence of China as a major participant in the global economy, the need for better communication tools between the English and Chinese populations has never been more pressing. This dictionary, with its two-way translation capability and unique layout, is an attempt to help filling the void.
