Han Ying ci dian = A Chinese-English dictionary / Beijing wai guo yu xue yuan Ying yu xi “Han Ying ci dian” bian xie zu bian ; [zhu bian Wu Jingrong].
This dictionary has a beautiful cover.
This dictionary will be much easier to use for the 1st- and 2nd-year students. This dictionary is ordered by Hanyu Pinyin with tone marks. However, each entry is bulleted by the Chinese characters in brackets.
This dictionary has sample sentences and multiple definitions per entry. There is no reference to parts of speech or etymology. There is a notation I have noticed in a few dictionaries that is also used here.
The tilde (~) is used to denote usage of the entry. Some people may prefer this to highlighting the words with color or text decorations, such as underline or bold.
