Blanc sees Bailey carrying a Chinese character dictionary and speaks to him

Bl:          Is that the Chinese character dictionay you spoke of last night?
Ba:         Yes. Haven't you brought one yet?
Bl:          No, I was thinking I'd buy one after I had a look at yours, so I haven't bought one yet. May I
              take a look at it?
Ba:         Certainly, word meanings are explained in easy to understand terms.
Bl:          Is that right? The type is easy to read, isn't it?
Ba:         Yes. It's a good dictionay, don't you think?
Bl:          Is it easy to look up words in it?
Ba:         It isn't too hard, but there are so many signs and symbols that you had better read the
              instructions carefully before using it.
Bl:         I see. I'll go and buy one right away, then.
