5、naries are more convenient because they are so small and light.Actually,I dont think the size and weight matter so much as longas its not too expensive.I think these new ones cost quite a lot,and I really dont want to spend more than 700 yuan.I think he might like one that looks very smart and moder

6、n-you know what young people are like,but I dont think that is important.What I really want him to have is a dictionary that will translate English words into Chinese,as well as translate Chinese words into English.Some people say that its better to have a dictionary that is only in English,but I th

7、ink it is too early for that.Maybe later,if Xiaowen goes on to study English at university,that will be good for him,but now I think he needs a two-way dictionary.This way,he can look up words in both languages.The other thing that I want him to have is an electronic dictionary that provides English

13、phones are included.The Mark 204D also has something called a wildcard search function.That means if you dont know the exact spelling of a word in English and you just enter what you think it might be,the dictionary will guess what the word is likely to be and will show you the correct spelling,and
