Referenced Theo. Expressions Updated to 2010-04-18 Version

The Referenced Theo. Expressions files, available for download from the Referenced Theo. Expressions (Chinese + Pinyin + English) and Referenced Theo. Expressions (Chinese + 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 2010-04-18. 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:

“Here’s the newest version of RTE with many corrections and additions. I’ve also generated Sidney Lau romanisations for the Cantonese version ... and revised the footnote format.

“PS: as explained in the PDF files, it’s often the case that Sidney Lau and Jyutping are identical. My code detects when this is the case and combines them to save printing space.”

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.
