The Dictionary of Frequently-Used Taiwan Minnan (Chinese: 臺灣台語常用詞辭典; Pe̍h-ōe-jī: Tâi-oân Tâi-gí Siông-iōng-sû Sû-tián) is a dictionary of Taiwanese Hokkien (including Written Hokkien) commissioned by the Ministry of Education of Taiwan.[1] The dictionary uses the Taiwanese Romanization System (based on pe̍h-ōe-jī) to indicate pronunciations and includes audio files for many words. As of 2013, the dictionary included entries for 20,000 words.[1]

In September 2000, initial plans to commission the dictionary were put forth by the National Languages Committee of the Ministry of Education. In July 2001, the Dictionary of Frequently-Used Taiwan Minnan Editorial Committee (Chinese: 臺灣閩南語常用詞辭典編輯小組; Pe̍h-ōe-jī: Tâi-oân Bân-lâm-gí Siông-iōng Sû-sî-tián Phian-chip Sió-cho͘) was established.[2]

In October 2008, a beta version of the dictionary was released. On 7 July 2011, the first approved edition of the dictionary was released.[2][3]

The dictionary is continuously updated by the Editorial Committee, and these updates are financially supported by the Ministry.[1][3] On 5 July 2018, the dictionary received a major update.[3] On 1 June 2020, Flash was retired in favor of HTML audio for the audio samples.[3]
