 • Dictionary Does Not Have Any Pin-yin, Not Useful Unless You Read Chinese
18 October, 2005

i bought the dictionary, hoping to use it as a reference tool to teach my 4 year old chinese. i am a native speaker myself. it is a good reference, if you can read chinese characters. But since it doesn't have pin-yin, you really can't use the dictionary to learn how to pronounce any of the words.

 • Not Useful For English-speaking Students Of Chinese
24 December, 1998

The New Oxford Pciture Dictionary (English/Chinese) is not useful for English-speaking students of Chinese. There is no transliteration for the Chinese characters, which are printed in a very hard-to-read light blue ink. This dictionary could be useful to Chinese-speaking students of English. However, they would need a good knowledge of the Western alphabet and sound system to use it.
