Features: We compiled and published a set of English learning vocabulary and phrases in April 2000. Since its publication, it has been widely welcomed by readers. At the request of many readers, we have carefully revised this set of materials, added a large amount of content, and made significant changes to the writing style. This set of dictionaries consists of four books: "English Verb Phrase Usage," "English Common Word Usage Dictionary," "English Common Word Collocation Dictionary," and "Practical English Speaking Dictionary." This set of dictionaries strives to be practical, convenient, and easy to understand. Practicality is reflected in the fact that the vocabulary selected for these four dictionaries is primarily common words, and their meanings and usages are compiled based on their usage frequency. Convenience comes from the fact that this set of dictionaries uses a 64-page format, making it easy to carry and reference. Ease of understanding lies in the concise and clear explanations in the dictionary, with vivid and life-like examples that are easy to understand and imitate. This dictionary includes over 5,000 common English verb phrases. Each definition of the verb phrase is accompanied by one to two example sentences, which are all translated to facilitate reader understanding.
