Definition
This row appears to contain a data error: the character 中式 (zhōng shì) means 'Chinese-style' (adjective), not 'pass the imperial examinations'. The pinyin zhòng shì and the gloss belong to the verb-object compound 中试 (zhòng shì). The POS is listed as v.o., which does not match the actual part of speech of 中式. Please review and correct the intended entry.
