Gerard Braad reviewed ABC English-Chinese Chinese-English dictionary by John DeFrancis (ABC Chinese dictionary series)
Review of 'ABC English-Chinese Chinese-English dictionary' on 'Goodreads'
4 stars
Own this title in different version (printed, software-based; Wenlin, Pleco, Hanping) and I am happy with it, but some of the usage feels contrived due to being obscure use or at least not in common use in the North of China (Beijing). The ABC has been of value to me as advanced use so I would recommend using Tuttle for learner's or the Oxford Chinese for general use.
