Book Synopsis Simplified Chinese Character Dictionary - Pocket Edition by : Adrian van Amstel
Download or read book Simplified Chinese Character Dictionary - Pocket Edition written by Adrian van Amstel and published by . This book was released on 2018-05-23 with total page 528 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 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.

This book was released on 2013-03-30 with total page 282 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The study of Chinese characters has been refined through thousands of years. There are two major categories in general; the intensive method and the dispersed method. Starting from 1960s, a special Chinese character learning method, the "family word" study, was established. After 20 years of continuing research and development, this teaching method has been adopted broadly in Chinese word study, particularly, in the second and third levels of word studies, and utilized in diverse Chinese learning textbooks. Mr. Dachang Ji developed a "root word" system. It extends about 300 "word families" into roughly 800 "root words." The system makes the Chinese word studying faster, easier, and more efficient. This dictionary's content and the word searching system are based on the "root word" system, which sorts the three thousand most frequently used Chinese characters. This dictionary helps students learn Chinese characters quickly and conveniently. At the same time, it teaches learners to distinguish characters that look similar, but not the same in a repetitive manner. This dictionary also contains 119 poems and short stories, including famous poems from the Tang and Song dynasty, kid rhymes, words for daily living, and the 2,500 most frequently used Chinese characters. Through these and the convenient "root word" system, the dictionary will become a necessary tool for overseas Chinese learners. This dictionary functions as an important and indispensable reference book in Chinese word studying. It can be used along with a variety of Chinese learning materials that help the Chinese word and literacy learning faster and more efficient. The attached famous poems and reading materials demonstrate classic Chinese culture. Learners can read them repeatedly to improve their Chinese pronunciation and enhance their knowledge of the basic Chinese characters.

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.
