A Manchu-Tibetan (in Tibetan and Manchu scripts)-Mongol-Turki (in Arabic and Manchu scripts)-Chinese dictionary. A large Qing dynasty polyglot dictionary. This work takes the entire vocabulary of the preceding four-language work of the same title and adds to it the Turki equivalents, as well as the phonetic transcriptions for two of the languages. (Michael Walter and Manfred Taube 2006-05-15, revised by Bill McGrath 2008-01-03) A Manchu, Mongolian, Chinese, Tibetan, Uighur dictionary compiled by order of the Qian Long Emperor (1735-1795) organized topically. Three copies are known to exist: 1. A copy in the Old Palace at Fen dian, a photo reprint of which is kept at Kyoto University and the Toyo Bunko. 2. A copy in the Old Palace at Beijing. A photo-reprint of which was published in 1957. 3. A copy in the British Library. MIMAKI Katsumi provides general comments, the Tibetan table of contents and advertises a complete Tibetan index in ("A Tibetan Index to the Pentaglot Dictionary from the Qing Dynasty" Tibetan Studies: Proceedings of the 4th Seminar of the International Association for Tibetan Studies. Eds. Helga Uebach and Jampa L. Panglung. Studia Tibetica 2. München: Kommission für Zentralasiatische Studien Bayerische Akademie der Wissenschaften, 1988. 279-292). I am unaware of where the Tibetan index was finally published. (Nathan Hill 2007-12-13, revised by Bill McGrath 2008-02-06)
