Features: For learners of foreign languages, after initially mastering grammar, the greatest challenge is not the usage of vocabulary. Language is like the ocean, with countless words and ever-changing usages. Whether one can grasp the usage of vocabulary well determines whether they can learn a foreign language effectively. While general dictionaries do provide some explanation of usage, they are often too broad and detailed in their coverage. Moreover, the fonts in dictionaries are usually small and densely printed, making them suitable for reference but difficult to study word by word. This book was written to meet this need.
