English Editorial Review
The Chinese-English Dictionary compiled for the China Inland Mission is highly regarded among individuals involved in the Chinese language. It is Considered the best Chinese-English dictionary available and useful for quickly searching applications already accepted in the language. The dictionary is detailed with over 7,500 head characters and their compounds, making it a monumental work. While there are newer Chinese-English dictionaries available, the Matthews dictionary provides a range of meanings for each character in combination with others, providing a broad understanding of the language. The book also contains a radical index in the appendix and a supplementary character list. The review suggests that criticisms of the dictionary should take into account the period when it was published and the benefit of hindsight. The size and comprehensiveness of the dictionary go hand-in-hand, and while it may not be suitable for individuals who prefer pocket-sized dictionaries, it contains a wealth of information. However, some reviewers found that an electronic translation machine or e-reader was more helpful when assimilating into Chinese culture.
