Description

A Vocabulary of the Shanghai Dialect - Gyan Books

About The Book: A Vocabulary of the Shanghai Dialect by Joseph Edkins is a foundational linguistic work documenting the vocabulary of the Shanghai dialect, a major Wu Chinese language variant. Published in the 19th century, it offers detailed word lists with English translations, aiding missionaries, scholars, and traders in communication and study. Edkins’ work captures the unique phonetics, tones, and idiomatic expressions of the dialect, preserving important linguistic features during a period of increasing Western interaction with Shanghai. The vocabulary serves as both a practical language guide and a valuable historical record of the region’s vernacular speech and cultural identity.
