How results are ordered

Exact character matches appear first. Pinyin matches whole syllables in headword pronunciations. Common exact readings come before common compounds, followed by less frequent or restricted readings. Direct English meanings rank ahead of mentions in longer definitions.

Frequency data from Cai & Brysbaert, SUBTLEX-CH (2010), Creative Commons Attribution. The data includes word forms with at least 10 occurrences in an older subtitle sample. Absence from the sample does not establish that a word is rare.
