A modified version of the CC-CEDICT Chinese-English dictionary created for my personal study ❄️

Uppercase and lowercase letters are used instead of numbers to represent the tones.

zheng1 zheng2 zheng3 zheng4 zheng5
ZHENG  zhENG  zheng  ZHeng  'zheng

a1     a2     a3     a4     a5
A      aA     a      Aa     'a

Sorted by: medial - final - initial - tone - unicode

a / an / ang
e / en / eng
i / in /ing
o / ong
u / un
ü
ia / ian / iang
ua / uan / uang
ie / ue / üe
ai / ei / ui / uai
ao / iong / uo / iao
iu / ou
m / r

So the dictionary starts with A - 'zha, then AN - ZHan, etc. Entries are only sorted by the first character; otherwise I have left them in CEDICT's default (Unicode) sort order.
