A Dictionary of Chinese Characters

2ND EDITION

Accessed by Phonetics

Routledge Encyclopedia of Translation Studies

Routledge Encyclopedia of Language Teaching and Learning

Stewart Paton, Formerly Head of Department of Languages at University College London, UK By arranging frequently used characters under the phonetic element they have in common, rather than only under their radical, the Dictionary encourages the student to link characters according to their phonetic. The system of cross-referencing then allows the student to find easily all the characters in the dictionary which have the same phonetic element, thus helping to fix in the memory the link between a character and its sound and meaning. This innovative resource will be an excellent study-aid for students with a basic grasp of Chinese.
