凡上过学的人,大概都用过《新华字典》——它初版于1953年,迄今12次修订,百余次重印,发行量累计高达4亿册,创造了世界之最。但鲜有人知道《新华字典》的编纂第一人——已故去28年之久的中国现代语言学家、语文教育家魏建功先生的故事。 Those who go to school, probably have used the “Xinhua Dictionary” - it was first published in 1953, so far revised 12 times, more than 100 reprinted, the circulation of up to 400 million copies, creating the highest in the world. But few people know the first person in the compilation of Xinhua Dictionary - the story of the late 28-year-old Chinese modern linguist and Chinese language educator Wei Jian Gong.
