"Xinhua Dictionary" is China's first modern Chinese dictionary. The earliest name was "Wu Ji Small Dictionary", but it could not be compiled. Since 1953, it has been re-edited, and its rules and regulations have been completely adopted from the "Wu Ji Small Dictionary". It has been published since 1953 and has been revised repeatedly, but the "Xinhua Dictionary" published by the Commercial Press in 1957 was used as the first edition. Originally compiled by Xinhua Dictionary Press, it was merged into the dictionary editing office of the Institute of Linguistics, Chinese Academy of Sciences (now the Institute of Linguistics, Chinese Academy of Social Sciences) in 1956. Xinhua Dictionary is published by The Commercial Press. It has gone through more than 10 large-scale revisions by hundreds of experts and scholars over several generations and has been reprinted more than 200 times. It has become the dictionary with the highest circulation in the world's publishing history.
