To meet the needs of readers, we have carefully selected and organized nearly 100,000 collected idiomatic expressions. In addition to selecting traditional idiomatic expressions that have been orally passed down, we have also included some new idiomatic expressions reflecting the spirit of the times and scientific progress. The book contains approximately 15,000 idiomatic expressions. To save space, this book combines multiple explanations for a single metaphorical expression, separating different explanations with semicolons, which is both convenient for selection and significantly saves space. For easy reference, the book adopts the widely used phonetic index method. To facilitate portability, the book is published in large 64-page format. Therefore, compared to similar books, this one we offer you is characterized by selected entries, small size, large capacity, easy to look up, and easy to carry. We hope this book can bring some convenience and add some interest to the lives, work, and studies of readers. This dictionary provides phonetic annotations and brief definitions for obscure, difficult-to-read, and hard-to-understand characters and words, marked in square brackets. The homophonic characters in the latter part of the idiomatic expressions are marked in parentheses.
