Description: The aim of the Oxford Dictionary of Idioms is to provide clear definitions of phrases and sayings, to improve English knowledge and awareness. This second edition of the Oxford Dictionary of Idioms maintains the first edition's focus on contemporary and historical phrases, sayings, and proverbs, and uses a combination of definition and explanatory note and illustrative quotation to provide a rounded picture of idiomatic usage. The coverage of the previous edition has been extended by the inclusion of more than 350 new idioms. Many contemporary illustrative quotations, taken from a variety of sources: from novels to travel guides, broadsheet newspapers to magazines, have been added. They help to give the reader a better understanding of how an idiom is used: a typical context, a certain tone, or a particular resonance. A new index section at the end of the book groups together idioms which share a common theme or subject, so giving readers a vivid snapshot of those areas and aspects of life that have generated a particularly rich variety of figurative expressions.
