Dear Jenry,
Knowing that you show interest in Chinese learning, I am eagerly writing to recommend a dictionary called Xinhua Dictionary to you.
The reasons why I think it suitable/appropriate are as follows. To begin with, it is rich in vocabulary, enabling you to better master Chinese characters. In addition, it contains the stroke of each character, which makes it easy for you to write each character correctly. Last but not least, not only can it help you have a deeper understanding of the characters but also it enables you to appreciate the beauty of them.
I do hope you can find my recommendation beneficial.
