An English Chinese Dictionary with Frequency Information Xuhua Chen Chinese, Bilingual edition

This English Chinese dictionary contains the most used 42,000 English words appeared on American and British newspapers. Being possibly the world's first of its kind, a per article per count method is used to measure word frequency. This is very different from the traditional way of frequency counting. Consider the following scenario, Word A appears 100 times on one article and doesn?t on 99 other articles. Word B appears 1 time on all 100 articles. Whilst the traditional way treats both cases the same which is 100, per article per count method sees the frequency of word A as 1 and word B as 100. Base on the frequency information, a two digit number presents the tendency of English and American use a word.
