This book is unique as an accessible and user-friendly introduction to the Chinese language.

The Chinese-English dictionary part is designed to capitalize on what English speakers know about their language, hence the more streamlined presentation of English know about their language, the more streamlined presentation of English-language information. The English-Chinese side is longer, providing the users of the Chinese speakers with maximum guidance in the form of detailed coverage of essential grammar, clear signposts to the correct translation for a particular context, and lots of examples.

The Oxford English-Chinese Chinese-English Minidictionary provides generous coverage of those aspects of Chinese which are less easy to decode for English speakers.
