At Five Years Old, I Slap Faces With A Smile
Yu Youning was already five years old when she learned that her mother was actually the true heiress of Yong’an Marquis Manor, who had been lost outside for more than twenty years. On the day they returned to the Marquis Manor, the Marchioness clung to the fake heiress, sobbing bitterly and acting out a touching mother-daughter scene. Meanwhile, little Wen Youning munched on a candied hawthorn and innocently asked: “Grandmother, it was my mother who was lost outside for over twenty years. This auntie here has been living as the young lady of the Marquis Manor for over twenty years. Why is she crying? Is it because she saw my mother reunite with her birth mother, but she herself can’t g...

Bilingual Lexicography from a Communicative Perspective
This stimulating new book, as the premier work introducing bilingual lexicography from a communicative perspective, is launched to represent original thinking and innovative theorization in the field of bilingual lexicography. It treats the bilingual dictionary as a system of intercultural communication and bilingual dictionary making as a dynamic process realized by sets of choices, characterizing the overall nature of the dictionary. It examines the dictionary and dictionary making by using a model of lexicography which stresses the three-way relationship of compiler, dictionary context and user and incorporates them into a unified coherent framework. Throughout the study, special focus is on English and Chinese bilingual lexicography. It will serve not only as a valuable guide to those interested in dictionary compilation and theoretical inquiries but also as a textbook for undergraduate and postgraduate courses in bilingual lexicography.
Chinese Lexicography
This comprehensive account of the history of Chinese lexicography is the first book on the subject to be published in English. It traces the development of Chinese lexicography over three millennia, from the Zhou Dynasty (1046 BC-256 BC) to the Qing Dynasty (1616-1911). Revealing how the emergence of lexicographical culture in ancient China was linked to the teaching of ancient characters, it describes the subsequent development of primers, thesauruses, and dictionaries of all major types, including those of dialects and technical terms. These works originated and appeared in ancient China, predating their western counterparts by hundreds of years: and in one form or another most of them remain in use today. Throughout their account the authors show how changes in the organization, content, use and researches of Chinese lexicographical works reflected broader social and political developments. This book not only makes an important and original contribution to the history of Chinese lexicography and the social and cultural history of China but also provides illuminating insights into world lexicography and new forms of comparative researches in lexicography in the global context.
