Description

A Syllabic Dictionary of the Chinese Language - Gyan Books

About The Book: **A Syllabic Dictionary of the Chinese Language** by **S. Wells Williams** is a comprehensive 19th-century reference work that arranges Chinese characters by sound, following the system *Wu-fang Yüan Yin*. It includes pronunciations as spoken in major dialect regions—Peking (Mandarin), Canton, Amoy, and Shanghai—making it one of the earliest tools for comparative Chinese phonology. With over 1,200 pages, the dictionary was invaluable to missionaries, diplomats, and scholars studying Chinese. It reflects Williams’ deep linguistic expertise and remains a significant historical contribution to sinology, lexicography, and the understanding of Chinese dialectal variation in the late Qing dynasty period.
