Giorgio Casacchia AN OLD CHINESE-ITALIAN DICTIONARY 1. Introduction In 1906, the Italian publisher Antonio Vallardi, at that time at the beginning of his bright career as a specialised publisher of dictionaries, put forth in Naples an interesting lexicographical work by G.B. Salerno, a Chinese language graduate of the Royal Institute of Oriental Studies of Naples, printed in the original manuscript form. The title of the book was Saggio d'un primo dizionario cinese-italiano secondo il principio della naturale evoluzione della scrittura, con varie illustrazioni [A first tentative Chinese-Italian Dictionary, according to the principle of the natural evolution of the writing system, with illustrations]; the book is preserved in two copies in the library of the Istituto Universitario Orientale. Inside, there were 27+3 Chinese characters chosen among those belonging to the Kangxi radical n° LXXX, e mu <mother>, or at least have in in their structure, followed by a tentative etymological explanation, the reading in the French spelling, and an Italian translation. The 27 characters, in the author's arrangement [roughly phonemic], were the following: 1. mu e radical 80 2. mu m " 38 3. mu iH.i " 64 4. mu W " 93 5. mu/wu /JJfE " 172 Giorgio Casacchia 6. wu f~ 9 7. wu fa " 9 8. wu '1'IlJ: " 61 -:1= 9. ai £fJ: " 80 10.du " 80 l1.wu m• " 80 12.mei fij " 80 13.mei m " 75 14.mei rI " 140 15.mei fflj " 104 16.mei IJij " 130 17.mei ~ " 167 IS.mei ill " 164 19.mei fit " 119 20.mei 11 173 21.min ~ 66 22.hui ~ " 149 23.hui iDI " 176 24.hui ~ " 61 25.yu IWrt " 130 26.cu JlJ& " 80 27.cu ~ " 80 In a following section of the book, three more characters were merely listed: 1. hui iit~ radical 25 2. fj with neither pronunciation nor radical 3. IS with neither pronunciation nor radical Now let's see what the author has to say about the above-listed characters. 1) The first character, if): mou [pinyin mu], means <mother> because is a "breast", derived from fr: nu, with two more dots indicating nipples. 50 .

Building a Collation Element Table for a Large Chinese Character Set in YES
Building a Collation Element Table for a Large Chinese Character Set in YES Xiaoheng Zhang1 and Xiaotong Li2 1 Department of Chinese and Bilingual Studies, Hong Kong Polytechnic University [email protected] 2 College of International Exchange, Shenzhen University [email protected] Abstract. YES is a simplified stroke-based method for sorting Chinese characters. It is free from stroke counting and grouping, and thus much faster and more accurate than the traditional method. This paper presents a collation element table built in YES for a large joint Chinese character set covering (a) all 20,902 characters of Unicode CJK Unified Ideographs, (b) all 11,408 characters in the Complete List of Chinese Characters Used by the Media in 2013, (c) all 13,000 plus characters in the latest versions of Xinhua Dictionary(v11) and Contemporary Chinese Dictionary(v6). Of the 20,902 Chinese characters in Unicode, 97.23% have one-to-one relationship with their stroke order codes in YES, comparing with 90.69% of the traditional method. Enhanced with the secondary and tertiary sorting levels of stroke layout and Unicode value, there is a guarantee of one-to-one relationship between the characters and collation elements. The collation element table has been successfully applied to sorting CC-CEDICT, a Chinese-English dictionary of over 112,000 word entries. Keywords: Chinese characters, collation, Unicode, YES 1 Introduction Collation, or determining the sorting order of strings of characters, is a key function in computer systems and a basic need of the human society. Whenever a list of texts—such as the records of a database and the entries of a dictionary—is presented to users, they are likely to want it in a sorted order so that they can easily and reliably find their target words.

Benzopinacolate Promoted Radical Carbon-Carbon Bond Forming
Bis(trimethylstannyl)benzopinacolate Promoted Radical Carbon-Carbon Bond Forming Reactions and Related Studies Dissertation Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Franklin Lee Seely Graduate Program in Chemistry The Ohio State University 2010 Dissertation Committee: Robert S. Coleman, Co-Advisor David J. Hart, Co-Advisor T. V. RajanBabu Abstract This research has dealt primarily with the development of novel methods for radical carbon-carbon bond formation. A major focus of this research has been the hydrogen atom free generation of trialkyltin radicals. The bulk of this thesis will deal with the use of bis(trimethylstannyl)benzopinacolate 1 in mediating radical reactions. We have demonstrated that these conditions allow a wide variety of inter and intramolecular free radical addition reactions. We have given evidence that these reactions proceed via a novel non-chain free radical mechanism. ii Dedication This thesis is dedicated to Tracy Lynne Court. You have given me the courage to try again. iii Acknowledgments I would like to sincerely thank Dr. David J. Hart for all his help, the countless hours of work he put in, and for making this possible. I would like to thank Dr. Robert S. Coleman for agreeing to act as my advisor, and all the support and guidance he has given. I would like to than Dr. T. V.

Verdazyl Radicals As Mediators in Living Radical Polymerizations and As Novel Substrates for Heterocyclic Syntheses
VERDAZYL RADICALS AS MEDIATORS IN LIVING RADICAL POLYMERIZATIONS AND AS NOVEL SUBSTRATES FOR HETEROCYCLIC SYNTHESES By Eric Kuan Yu Chen A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Graduate Department of Chemistry University of Toronto © Copyright by Eric Kuan Yu Chen 2010 VERDAZYL RADICALS AS MEDIATORS IN LIVING RADICAL POLYMERIZATIONS AND AS NOVEL SUBSTRATES FOR HETEROCYCLIC SYNTHESES Degree of Doctor of Philosophy, 2010 Eric Kuan Yu Chen Department of Chemistry, University of Toronto Abstract Verdazyl radicals are a family of multicoloured stable free radicals. Aside from the defining backbone of four nitrogen atoms, these radicals contain multiple highly modifiable sites that grant them a high degree of derivatization. Despite having been discovered more than half a century ago, limited applications have been found for the verdazyl radicals and little is known about their chemistry. This thesis begins with an investigation to determine whether verdazyl radicals have a future as mediating agents in living radical polymerizations and progresses to their application as substrates for organic synthesis, an application that to date has not been pursued either with verdazyl or nitroxide stable radicals. The first part of this thesis describes the successful use of the 1,5-dimethyl-3-phenyl-6- oxoverdazyl radical as a mediating agent for styrene and n-butyl acrylate stable free radical polymerizations. The study of other verdazyl derivatives demonstrated the impact of steric and electronic properties of the verdazyl radicals on their ability to mediate polymerizations. ii The second part of this thesis outlines the initial discovery and the mechanistic elucidation of the transformation of the 1,5-dimethyl-3-phenyl-6-oxoverdazyl radical into an azomethine imine, which in the presence of dipolarophiles, undergoes a [3+2] 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition reaction to yield unique pyrazolotetrazinone structures.

According to the mathematical laws, the calligraphic lines can be represented as vectors that interact with each other. The Chinese writing as a cultural heritage whicn represents a multidimensional entity is described by graphemes as proto-complex numbers, the main task of which to transfer the dimensions of transcendental concepts into logical categories.
