Anonymous Records of the History of New Learning (Hai pian) was written in about1107-1130, with 55665 words.
Jin Wangtai's "Adding Jade to the Sea" (the sea) was written about 1 130, with 62,236 words.
Jin Han Daozhao's "Five Tones in Four Seas" was written in1208,56000 words.
Tang Mingzu's "Jing Ke Tang Revision of the Five-Hou Mackerel Ci Hai" ("Five-Hou Mackerel Ci Hai") was written in the late Ming Dynasty, with 70,073 words.
This is just an example, and it's not just that these books have more words than the Chinese Dictionary.
Most people don't know these dictionaries. We might as well compare the most famous Kangxi Dictionary with several great dictionaries in modern times:
Kangxi dictionary, written by 17 16, received 47035 words.
A Chinese Dictionary was written in 19 15, with more than 48,000 words.
A Chinese dictionary, published by Sichuan Dictionary Publishing House, 1990, with a collection of 54678.
The Sea of Chinese Characters published by Zhonghua Book Company 1994 has 85,568 words, which is the largest dictionary in China.
In addition to large dictionaries in ancient times, there are also large dictionaries with more than 50,000 words in modern times. Japan has also published a Japanese-Chinese dictionary with more than 50,000 Chinese characters. From this point of view, Kangxi Dictionary may not even rank before 10. Academic value is another matter.
In addition, the Haifeng Wu Bi font installed on my machine has more than 70,000 characters. It is said that Peking University (like Tsinghua, I can't remember) has a font collection of over 654.38 million.
Therefore, it is unnecessary to call it Kangxi.
Correction: I checked the largest font again and got the message 1999. Did not receive more than 65438+ ten thousand words. I originally recorded 65,438+10,000 words because a comment said, "Add Japanese and Korean characters derived from Chinese characters, and the total number of Chinese characters exceeds 654,380+10,000."
At present, the most comprehensive Chinese character library shows that there are more than 90,000 Chinese characters with sources in China.
Xinhua News Agency
According to the Chinese character library of Beijing Guoan Information Equipment Company appraised by experts a few days ago, there are 9 125 1 Chinese characters with sources. Experts say that this is the most complete Chinese font at present.
It is understood that before the advent of Guoan font, the most Chinese characters were the Sea of Chinese Characters published by 1994, and * * * received 870 1 9 Chinese characters, including 320 repeated words. In addition to all the Chinese characters in national and international standards, the Guoan font library also covers all the characters in Shuowen Jiezi, Kangxi Dictionary, Chinese Dictionary and Chinese Characters Sea, covering all the Chinese characters compiled by Taiwan's education department in the 1980s. At the same time, it also collects ancient and modern surnames and names that cannot be included in the above-mentioned word sets, dictionaries and word books. Experts believe that Guoan font can not only be used for printing Chinese characters, collating ancient books, compiling dictionaries, sorting out and studying Chinese characters, but also provide a high-level font tool for making lists of names and certificates and marking place names on the map of China.
