Features: To fully meet the needs of a broad readership, especially primary and secondary school students, for language reference books, we have organized experts to meticulously compile a series of "compact yet comprehensive" language reference books. This series consists of multiple dictionaries and glossaries in Chinese, English, and Chinese-English. The key feature of this series is that each dictionary or glossary includes five or more practical contents or functions, all designed based on the actual needs of students in classroom learning, extracurricular reading, advancement exams, and daily life, among other aspects. It is a compact yet rich and comprehensive collection of language reference books covering various aspects of linguistic knowledge. This book, "Idioms, Proverbs, Colloquialisms, and Common Phrases – Dictionary," is one of the series. The entire book selects and includes over 30,000 entries, all classic idioms, proverbs, colloquialisms, or common phrases that are widely recognized and frequently used. These linguistic elements are either vivid and humorous or concise yet profound, shining like precious gems in the treasure trove of the Chinese language and being highly popular among people. Learning and mastering these words are essential for improving language and literary literacy, especially enriching one's vocabulary. In recent years, with the increasing emphasis on quality education for students in China, this knowledge has also become a must-learn content in major exams such as the junior high school entrance exam and the college entrance exam.
