david387 Posted July 2, 2021 at 05:24 PM Report Share Posted July 2, 2021 at 05:24 PM I'm always excited when I find an error on Pleco. I have a lot of respect for this app and I have learned so much using it. But it's pretty neat to find a mistake and give them a correction. Here is my submission today and I hope that I am correct here. 标识 There are two pronunciations for this word, and you seem to be missing the verb biāo shí which means mark or identify.

大块头 Posted July 2, 2021 at 09:32 PM Report Share Posted July 2, 2021 at 09:32 PM The KEY Chinese-English dictionary has the reading and meaning that OP brought up. Probably a lot rarer than biao1 zhi4, which is listed in 7 of the dictionaries I have. I wouldn't classify this as an "error" though... the stock Pleco dictionary presumably isn't meant to be as extensive as the paid dictionaries available in the app. On the topic though, here's my submission. How does one read the character "☕" ? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

大块头 Posted July 2, 2021 at 10:32 PM Report Share Posted July 2, 2021 at 10:32 PM Did a Chinese friend tell you that 标识 in that article is read as biao1shi2 and not biao1zhi4? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now I'm picturing a commercial with suited-up astronauts scanning the space station with their mobile phones. Tagline: Pleco 4.0, cheaper than your own space program Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
