Definition
中大 is an abbreviation for a university whose name starts with 中大, most commonly 中山大学 (Zhongshan University) in Guangzhou. It is pronounced as 'Zhōng Dà' (two syllables), though the source data only lists the first syllable. You will see it used as a proper noun in academic contexts. Be aware that the same characters can also be read 'zhòng dà' in the phrase '中大奖' (to win a big prize), but that is a different meaning and tone.
