The publication of ‘A Dictionary of the Chinese Language’ plays an important role in the Sino-Western cultural interaction. It is the first English-Chinese and Chinese-English dictionary in the world, which gives the Chinese and Western an opportunity to learn and recognize each other intimately. This dictionary incorporates Chinese history, geography, political studies, economy, culture, etc, which is a key for the foreigners to open the Chinese cultural thesaurus. The citation of ‘A Dictionary of the Chinese Language’ is different from the dictionaries that we use nowadays. Besides of the traditional classic sentences, it further makes use of the relevant explanation in other field, for example, medical science, law, religion, etc. Compare to the official compilation ‘Kang-he’s Dictionary’, this dictionary can well reflect our Chinese culture in various ways. This unmatchable superiority shows its contribution to the Sino-Western cultural interaction, and because of this, it attracts researchers to widely discuss its values. This thesis is divided into five parts: Chapter 1 is the introduction of this thesis. We first briefly introduce ‘A Dictionary of the Chinese dictionary’ and its author, Robert Morrison. Later, we will list out the aim, scope, and the methodology used in this thesis. Chapter 2 shows the statistical results of our research area, and we will discuss the use of citation thoroughly. Chapter 3 is the core of this thesis. We will analyze the statistical results listed in the previous chapter, and make a conclusion of the characteristics of citation used in this dictionary. Based on the use of citation, chapter 4 is trying to make some inferences showing why Robert Morrison selected these citations and his consideration of using such sentences. Chapter 5 is the conclusion of the thesis. We will induct the precious value of the dictionary based on our research background and the contribution of the dictionary.
