Names and translations

The institution uses Da Ya Culture International and International Da Ya Feng Literary Prize consistently in English. Names are presented in commonly used romanization alongside Chinese characters where helpful. The original Chinese titles of literary works are retained, rather than replaced with unofficial English titles. Award names are preserved as recorded for each edition; they are not retroactively standardized.

Archival jury announcements describe proposed or announced committee structures. Confirmed award recipients and ceremony dates are drawn from the corresponding ceremony records.
