    I do find the Chinese English dictionary fascinating and spend a lot of time consulting mine . One of the most intriguing aspects is recognition of the radicals for instance 农 at first sight I thought it was the roof radical but could not find the word then I thought it may be the downward 丿 radical and so on , but it turned out to be the 丶dot radical and hence the word 农 nóng (agriculture ) was the word . Sometimes it is a slog to find the words but it gives a sense of achievement to get there .

    This is the one we used in elementary school. The others I've used are more advanced than this one. However, if you have any other requirements, such as a mix of Chinese and English, I can help you look for one.

    Sorry I don’t know is there any dictionary for Portuguese speakers, maybe you can google Portuguese-Chinese dictionary. You can just search Xinhua dictionary for the one that I’m using in Amazon. I put the link in the description. I will post more of these videos, I post one every week. If you have any questions you can tell me, I can make videos about them. Or you can just contact me at the email in the description :)

    Would an English - Mandarin dictionary be better or Mandarin only be better for learning

    If you’re just starting out, English - Mandarin might be more suitable. If you already have some knowledge about Mandarin, you can try to use Mandarin only dictionaries. Just use what feels right for you :)
