A Thematic Dictionary of Contemporary Chinese is a unique resource
for intermediate to advanced students of Chinese. The dictionary
presents 9,000 words organized thematically in approximately 300
different subject areas. These themes cover the vocabulary
necessary for daily use and for conducting meaningful conversations
with native Chinese speakers on a variety of topics, from politics
to business, and from hobbies to education. Each vocabulary item is
annotated with the most frequent collocations, allowing learners to
improve their fluency by storing new vocabulary in larger
linguistic units. Cultural and linguistic tips enable learners to
grasp the vocabulary more effectively and increase their awareness
of Chinese culture embedded in the language. Review exercises are
provided throughout to ensure learners have ample opportunity to
practice the new material. This is a great resource for both
independent study and classroom use and will be of interest to
students and teachers of Chinese alike. For further understanding
of Chinese expressions, students are encouraged to read 500 Common
Chinese Proverbs and Colloquial Expressions and 500 Common Chinese
Idioms.
