English-Chinese

Two-language dictionary type

English-Chinese describes something involving both the English and Chinese languages, typically a dictionary, translation, or learning resource that moves between the two: an English-Chinese dictionary, English-Chinese translation software.

The term usually indicates the direction of reference—from English words to their Chinese equivalents.
