The Thesaurus of English Idioms is the first serious attempt in the English language to construct a dictionary of synonymous phrases. The current collection contains: 21,500 entries, including 12,500 core idioms; 9,000 cross-references with complete explanatory notes; 22,000 example sentences; 100,000 synonymous phrases explaining the idioms. The book has been designed for five distinct audiences: students of English who would like to build a stronger vocabulary; native speakers who wish to expand their idiomatic vocabulary; teachers of ESL (English as a Second Language) worldwide; members of the general public, wishing to use the collection as a comprehensive reference guide to figurative English; lexicographers doing research in the field of phraseology.
