WORKS PUBLISHED

Wenlin Software for Learning Chinese Wenlin Institute, Inc., 1997 to Present I started what was to become the Wenlin project in 1988 after returning from a year in . I wrote the dictionaries as well as the software for the first version, published in 1997. Subsequent versions 2 and 3 incorporate the ABC Dictionary (see below). I co-authored the 250-page printed User's Guide. The current version of the software is 3.4.1. Thousands of students and scholars around the world use this software. Customers include universities and governmental institutions as well as individuals. Version 4 is planned for publication in 2010.

ABC English-Chinese/Chinese-English Dictionary University of Hawai'i Press, 2010 (forthcoming) The chief editors are John DeFrancis and Zhang Yanyin. I am an associate editor. The English-Chinese part of this student-oriented dictionary is new, while the Chinese-English part is abridged and improved from the Comprehensive edition (see below). I provided linguistic expertise and technical implementations, including addition of International Phonetic Alphabet for English pronunciations, creation of new entries, checking and revision of existing entries (for consistency, orthography, parts of speech, grammar, etc.), abridgment, indexing, and typesetting.

ABC Chinese-English Comprehensive Dictionary University of Hawai'i Press, 2003 (ISBN 0-8248-2766-X) The chief editor was the famous linguist and author John DeFrancis. I was an associate editor, and was responsible for the technical aspects of the project as well as sharing in linguistic tasks, including addition of complex (traditional) forms of , creation of new entries, consistency checking, orthography, parts of speech, grammar, indexing, and typesetting.This dictionary contains approximately two hundred thousand entries. We actively maintain it in preparation for future Comprehensive editions, in both printed and digital forms.

Pop Mandarin: A Postmodern Chinese Phrasebook from Feng Shui to Wallstreet Red Mansions Publishing, 2005 (ISBN 1-891688-04-9) By Kirsten Ditterich-Shilakes & Janey Chen. I did the typesetting and addition of pinyin romanization, and assisted in design and proofreading.

A Specification for CDL: Character Description Language and Character Description Language (CDL): The Set of Basic CJK Unified Stroke Types Published in digital form, 2003-2004 With Richard Cook. These documents were submitted as expert contributions for reference of the Technical Committee and the Ideographic Rapporteur Group (part of the International Standards Organization, in charge of encoding Chinese, Japanese, Korean, and Vietnamese characters). One result was the encoding of the CJK Strokes block characters in Unicode.

ABC Dictionary of Chinese Proverbs University of Hawai'i Press, 2002 (ISBN 0-8248-2221-8) By John S. Rohsenow. I did the typesetting and assisted in indexing and proofreading.
