Features: The purpose of compiling this dictionary is to help English learners improve their ability to express ideas using English idioms. The dictionary selects over 2,000 common English idioms, each with bilingual English-Chinese definitions and example sentences, making it suitable for intermediate and advanced English learners. In terms of arrangement, we have adopted a functional/meaning (expression) classification system to emphasize the practical application of the dictionary. Readers can first consult the functional/meaning classification table to find the most suitable English idiom based on the meaning they wish to express, and then locate it in the specific functional/meaning categories in the main body of the dictionary. Additionally, an index is provided at the back of the book, listing all the English idioms included in the dictionary in alphabetical order by keyword and marking the corresponding page numbers in this dictionary. This enhances the functionality of the dictionary, allowing readers to use it just as they would a regular English idiom dictionary.
