Oxford Idioms Dictionary

To teach and learn at the same time 🙂

I purchased this book for the adult learners in my ESL classroom. Idioms can be very difficult, so this is a useful book. The price was good and the condition of the book was excellent.

everything about idioms but were afraid to ask. In other words, I think every idiom in the English language is here in 465 pages. It was a little more than I needed, but I was a little disappointed there were no histories on the sayings. The little stories behind the idioms are often quite interesting. ex: "throwing in the towel," was from the boxing world, and of course, "stepping up to the plate," from baseball. Those are little fun facts. Probably not every one has a story, but there are many. But it's well organized by the key words, and easy to use and gives example sentences.

Awesome book. Great for both level studies. Love it!

Great!!

Very good

Very complete, however, be warned: this text includes British idioms, some of which are not used in US. Exercises in center of text good but sometimes difficult for English language learners.

Great

I liked this book a lot. It has heaps of idiom including ones I didn't even realise I was using till I saw them in the book. It is fun as well as it has quiz's and other exercises. I found that I knew all (or almost all) of the idiom but for foreigners idiom can be quite a challenge and my Korean wife is learning lots of them and finding it very good

Llego en excelentes condiciones. Contiene muchas frases y expresiones inglesas para estudiar y aprender.

AIさんからのご紹介で購入しました。ボリュームは470ページほどあり語彙数も十分あるのだと思いますが、私には難しすぎます。日本の大学受験程度のイディオムで良いかなと考えていたところ、そのような割合平易な表現はほとんど掲載されていないようです。そもそも私は英文のライティングを習得したいと思っておりましたので、慣用句は表現を多彩にするために不可欠です。これなら受験用のイディオム集が適切だったように思います。しかし、いつかはこの本の編集意図が分かりが使えるようになれればと努力してみるつもりです。

good
