My experience is that now people who are not in the field use "sinologist" to mean "anybody who studies China," not just "culture." Perhaps this is a relic of earlier use:
Webster's 1913 Dictionary Si`nol´o`gist
n.
1.
A student of China and the Chinese; one versed in the Chinese language, literature, history, politics and culture. Same as sinologue. — Preceding unsigned comment added by CWH (talk • contribs) 12:00, October 13, 2008 (UTC)
