Features: "My Misunderstanding with English" is a series of 3 books, including "Interpreting Literally," "Communication Mistakes," and "Chinglish." They are all composed of typical errors that Chinese people often make when learning English, aiming to teach readers correct understanding and natural English expressions. By analyzing the pitfalls, they provide guidance to help readers navigate these issues. English, like Chinese, often has multiple meanings for a single word, and some contextual meanings can be difficult to find even in dictionaries! Moreover, some words are misunderstood from the start by many people, who continue to use them incorrectly based on assumptions. "Interpreting Literally" is specifically written to address such problems.
