Features: Most people find learning spoken English more difficult than learning written English because spoken English is less formal than written English, and it often requires immediate responses without the opportunity to look up a dictionary or ask for help. This book is published to help English learners master the latest British and American spoken English and use these expressions appropriately in different situations and with different people. The approximately 500 new British and American spoken English expressions and idioms introduced in this book are collected from various media such as books, newspapers, magazines, television, and movies, as well as through the author's personal interactions with British and American people. Each entry includes detailed explanations and practical example sentences, making them memorable for readers. Illustrations are used to provide additional information, such as "Am" for American English, "abb" for abbreviations, and different illustrations for jargon and terminology. This book is a companion to the "500 Common British and American Spoken English" series, "500《》," helping readers improve their overall spoken English proficiency.
