拥有115年悠久历史的牛津词典本月推出了新版《牛津英汉－汉英词典》，其中收录了“山寨”、“房奴”等近年来流行的中文词汇。据介绍，为了编纂这本新发行的中英文词典，中英两国的出版社共计60名编辑人员花费了近5年的时间。与原版相比，它用更加现代化、口语化的语言来对词条进行解读，达到深入浅出的效果。这将是史上第一本“达到如此规模的中英文词典”。为了更易于理解词条的文化含义，该词典还专设了侧栏，对“胡同”、“油条”等富有文化内涵的词语提供详细解释。这本词典的主编表示，由于语言发展过快，纸质版本很难跟上更新步伐，词典出版后更新的词条将只在其网络版进行更新。[文章版权 禁止转载:考试与评价 http://www.trgroup.com.cn/te/ �=3?;�;Dw 5* !J FroG]
