CHEN Donghai taught me the Chinese conversation in 1967. Time flies so fast.
He was the important adviser for making The Iwanami Chinese Dictionary that was the first alphabetically arranged dictionary in Japan.
I have the dear memory for him.
He ever heard classical Chinese opera in Beijing, that was for hearing not for seeing, so hear-opera people sat sideways toward the opera's stage. He talked us such condition for hearing pleasantly.
CHEN Donghai, after all, taught us the Beijing's tradition on history and culture succeeding the glorious Qing's dynasty.
My language study's basis was constructed in those days being led by CHEN Donghai.
