Dragomir Posted July 26, 2023 Posted July 26, 2023 Gentlemen, I am wandering if someone with sufficient fluency in Chinese would help me to catalogize a Chinese book in my library. I need exact translation, transliteration and publishing details. The photograph of the title page is enclosed. Thanks in advance. Dragomir

Dragomir Posted July 26, 2023 Author Posted July 26, 2023 Dear JapanX, thank you very much for the prompt reply. Any chance for transliteration of the Chinese text?.

JapanX Posted August 25, 2023 Posted August 25, 2023 Yes, of course https://asiamedals.info/threads/how-to-read-dates-in-chinese-award-documents.23570/ Somehow I mechanically type the numbers 六十三/63 and 七十二/72 instead of converting them.
