Known problems in this Iile include the Iollowing:

Mistakes initially spotted in original document (this is only a draIt edition Irom Eastland):
The original Eastland PDF had the wrong chao () Ior chao re. Should be .
In traditional script, chng means gushing (as in water) when written as ;.
When used in the context oI the chng |thoroughIare| vessel, it is written as y. Both
characters are simpliIied to , in simpliIied Chinese. Note also that this word is read in
the Iirst tone, not Iourth tone (unless it is used to mean 'mechanical punch).
] is pronounced bo, not bo.
Da tou wen should use this wen , so the computer couldn`t make the match.
Also no computer match with deaIness because the original character has a typo.
There are a Iew tone mistakes, such as :o, which should have the accent on the o
instead oI the u.

Mistakes in extraction and comparison:
Matches may be missing alternate terms or the same character with diIIerent
pronounciation. For example, may be read as qiang or fiang, with two diIIerent
meanings. There are not likely to be many computer-based mistakes in this document,
but I have spotted a Iew so Iar that all relate to the computer's matching limitations in this

the Iirst match and may be leaving out other alternate entries Ior the same character Irom
the PD list.
A number oI terms were not matched perIectly by the computer. These would
need to be dealt with individually beIore a Iull comparative chart could be made.
