Simplified Chinese Character Dictionary - Pocket Edition by Adrian van Amstel Pdf

Do you often have difficulty finding a particular character in a standard Chinese dictionary? Do you often fail to remember characters, though you have seen and looked them up several times? Don't you think one of the reasons could be that characters that look similar to others are not grouped together? And don't you think that the etymological background of characters (their historical development) could and should be explained better in order to understand the reason for all those dots and strokes? If your answer to these questions is 'yes', then help could be on its way within seconds. The Simplified Chinese Character Dictionary and its 'parent', the Chinese Character Dictionary, both contain several new features that make looking up, learning and remembering Chinese characters more effective and more fun:* characters are arranged by the phonetic part that in most characters is relatively easy to distinguish; by grouping characters that have the same phonetic into series, characters that look almost similar can be compared and studied together;* any character can be found by stripping it first of its radicals, and then splitting the remaining phonetic into components. Phonetic and character can then be found under one of these components;* more than 5,700 different character shapes can be found using the same 3-step method. Examples are given of their usage in daily or literary Chinese, and many pinyin transliterations are given;* counting strokes is not necessary; most characters can be found within seconds;* almost all phonetics are supplied with an etymological explanation, which are helpful for better understanding of the historical background of phonetics and characters. Moreover, they are very effective in helping with remembering characters and distinguishing them from others that look similar;* a 30-page introduction is included, in which the method used for looking up characters is explained step by step, and illustrated with many examples. It also explains how to distinguish radicals, and explains the different kinds of radicals. Moreover, the introduction contains a brief overview of the historical development of Chinese characters in general.The Simplified Chinese Character Dictionary is based on the Chinese Character Dictionary (CCD). It differs from the latter in that it only contains simplified character entries. If a character has a different traditional version, then that is only given in brackets behind its simplified counterpart. In contrast, the CCD contains both simplified and traditional character entries, which can be searched for independently. Another difference is that the example words and phrases in the Simplified CCD are entirely in simplified Chinese, while in the CCD these are primarily in traditional Chinese.The Simplified Chinese Character Dictionary is primarily for students of Chinese in the beginning years of their study, who want to focus on learning simplified characters as quickly as possible. In contrast, the CCD can be used by people who use traditional and/or simplified script.

The Big Chinese Character Dictionary. Covering 8897 Chinese Characters with Sound Transcription, English Meaning Definitions and Writing Practice According to the Chinese Radical System by Muhammad Wolfgang G. A. Schmidt Pdf

This new Chinese Character Dictionary covers over 8000 Chinese simplified character entries in transcription, English meaning definitions and writing practice. Character entries are sorted according to the Chinese Radical system, and the increased coverage of Chinese characters exceeding the number of 3000 characters deemed to be the minimum for reading a newspaper daily, for example, will therefore also meet the higher demands of more advanced Western learners of Chinese. There is ample opportunity for writing practice; two Chinese character indices for locating Chinese character entries in this book (sorted by radicals and number of strokes) and two radical tables (covering both traditional and simplified Chinese characters for comparison) at the end complete the material of the book.

Do you often have difficulty finding a particular character in a standard Chinese dictionary? Do you often fail to remember characters, though you have seen and looked them up several times? Don't you think one of the reasons could be that characters that look similar to others are not grouped together? And don't you think that the etymological background of characters (their historical development) could and should be explained better in order to understand the reason for all those dots and strokes? If your answer to these questions is 'yes', then help could be on its way within seconds. The Chinese Character Dictionary contains several new features that make looking up, learning and remembering Chinese characters more effective and more fun:* characters are arranged by the phonetic part that in most characters is relatively easy to distinguish. By grouping characters that have the same phonetic into series, it is now possible to study and compare characters that look almost similar;* any character can be found by stripping it first of its radicals, and then splitting the remaining phonetic into components. Phonetic and character can then be found under one of these components;* about 7,450 traditional and 1,450 simplified character shapes can be found using the same 3-step method. Examples are given of their usage in daily or literary Chinese, and many pinyin transliterations are given;* counting strokes is not necessary, and most characters can be found within seconds;* etymological explanations are included, which can help people to understand the historical background of phonetics and characters, moreover, they are very effective with helping to remember them and distinguishing them from others that look similar;* a 30-page introduction is included, in which the method used for looking up characters is explained step by step, and with many examples. It also explains how to distinguish radicals, besides explaining different kinds of radicals. Moreover, the introduction contains a brief overview of the historical development of Chinese characters in general.The Chinese Character Dictionary is meant for people who use traditional and/or simplified texts; no matter whether the character you are looking for is a simplified or traditional one, both can be found just as conveniently with the same method. The Chinese Character Dictionary can also be used by people who do not plan to study Chinese on a regular basis, but are interested in learning about Chinese characters, their history, and ancient Chinese culture. For example, the etymological description of the character for "wife" will inform you that it is composed of two pictographs, one for that of a woman, and the other depicting a hand holding a broom. These and other etymological descriptions are very insightful for understanding ancient Chinese culture.For students of Chinese who are in the beginning years of their study and are using simplified characters, an alternative version of the CCD is available. The Simplified Chinese Character Dictionary is based on the Chinese Character Dictionary, but differs from the latter in that it only contains simplified character entries. Another difference is that the example words and phrases in the simplified CCD are entirely in simplified Chinese, while in the CCD these are primarily in traditional Chinese.

What Character is That? by Gam Go Pdf

The 5,000 characters are arranged in groups headed by their radicals. The Radical is the principal writing-unit of the character (radix = root) & gives the general meaning, i.e. the Group name of the character. The groups are ALPHABETICALLY arranged according to the number of their strokes. Well over 3,000 characters can be found knowing only 43 easy-to-recognize Radicals, such as Man, Mouth, Water, Tree. A RAPID-ACCESS INDEX allows the user to find a character in the larger groups by recognizing & naming a second-writing unit. All writing units are explained on the basis of their ancestral forms & are easy to recognize & name. USING THIS DICTIONARY, ANYONE KNOWING THE RADICAL & ITS NAME CAN FIND THE MEANING OF A CHINESE CHARACTER. The dictionary contains the SIMPLIFIED & PINYIN (Romanized) forms of the characters as now being used in the People's Republic of China. It also contains QUIZZES, such as A WALK THROUGH CHINATOWN & WHAT'S ON THE MENU? to help the user get familiar with its use.
