Features: Idioms are an important part of the Chinese language. Using idioms accurately can make language or writing more vivid, concise, lively, and expressive. Understanding the meanings of idioms correctly and using them appropriately is a crucial aspect of learning Chinese. To master this aspect, it is necessary to use reference books like idioms dictionaries. "Designed for reference and research" is a fundamental characteristic of reference books. Therefore, a good reference book must not only provide the function of "solving doubts and difficulties" but also offer quick and efficient retrieval methods, otherwise, it may fail to meet the actual needs of readers. Idioms dictionaries are no exception. This book includes 11,213 idioms (including a small number of commonly used colloquial phrases and sayings), consisting of main entries and cross-references. Generally, the basic form of an idiom is used as the main entry, while other forms of the idiom are listed as cross-references.
