McGraw-Hill's Dictionary of American Idioms

Description

The most in-depth, comprehensive book of common idioms and phraseology available. From proverbial expressions ("the best things in life are free") to idiomatic expressions ("the best of both worlds") to the all-too-familiar clichés ("the best-case scenario"), idioms are not only embedded in our language, but they are also a colorful reflection of our American culture. McGraw-Hill's Dictionary of American Idioms embraces the fullest breadth of these idioms in one comprehensive reference that is a must-have for both ESL learners and native speakers.

Providing the most comprehensive treatment of American phraseology available, particularly in the area of verbal expressions, McGraw-Hill's Dictionary of American Idioms features:

* More than 24,000 entries
* Concise definitions of each entry and sense, followed by one or two example sentences
* Idiomatic phrases, proverbial expressions, and cliches
* Guidance on the tone appropriate for a select phrase as well as its origin
* Thorough treatment of variation, of particular help to ESL learners
* A comprehensive Phrase-Finder Index

When decompressed, the .PDF file is 18 MB. The publication date is 2005, not 2003. I had a copy of this same book from Gigapedia before. That was over 20 MB. Same book, better .PDF compression.
