Referenced Theo. Expressions Updated to 2010-03-26 Version

The Referenced Theo. Expressions files, available for download from the Referenced Theo. Expressions (Chinese + Pinyin + English) and Referenced Theo. Expressions (Chinese + JP/Yale Cant. Rom. + English) pages, have been updated. These files are meant to be relatively extensive lists of theo. expressions as they have been found to be rendered in the Chinese publications. Versions sorted by English and versions sorted by romanisation are both available.


The current version is now dated 2010-03-26. A Mandarin Pleco version and a Mandarin Wenlin version are available in addition to the PDF files. Also, a password is no longer needed to access this resource.


Thanks go out to the one who helped to produce these files. Here are some notes from this person regarding this update:

“The most important thing is, some of the example sentences used tilde symbols (~) to mean "the head word" (standard practice in dictionaries), but silly me didn't realise that my TeX system was failing to include this symbol in the PDF versions, so nearly all the examples in the PDF versions were completely wrong because the head word had been deleted! This has now been fixed.”

Bookmarks have been added to the PDF files, so “LinkNav” (“Link Navigation”) has been added to their filenames. See the PDF Link Navigation page for more information on LinkNav features.
