The first Expo Dictionary (Chinese-English-French) compiled by the Bureau of
Shanghai World Expo Coordination was launched in Shanghai in July 23. Mr. Zhou
Hanmin, Deputy Chairman of CPPCC Shanghai and Deputy Director-General of the
Bureau of Shanghai World Expo Coordination was also present at the opening
ceremony. Owing to the fact that many special terms will be confronted in the
preparation of Expo Shanghai, the publishing of the dictionary will help greatly
for the public to know World Expo and its terms, and to help volunteers to
better carry out their jobs and communicate with foreigners. More than 2,500
words and phrases are collected in the dictionary ranging from all business
branches of World Expo including those in the fields of history, current
situation, organizational structure, construction & exhibition, operation
and management, communication and promotion, market development, safeguarding,
finance and assistance, etc. All terms are translated into both English and
French, some are provided with remarks.
