Description :
Oxford Dictionary of Idioms 2 (Symbian UIQ) - Does your English cut the mustard, or do you
Does your English cut the mustard, or do you find that it's wide off the mark?
Containing more than 5,000 entries, this dictionary covers metaphorical phrases,
similes, familiar sayings, and proverbs, providing illustrative quotations from sources as varied as
the Bible, the Spectator, and Agatha Christie. It explains meanings and provides historical information for
well-known idioms such as cost an arm and a leg, knoks spots off, once in a blue moon, the tip of
the iceberg, and many more. Full of fascinating facts, this dictionary is ideal for anyone with interest
in the origins of the colloquial, quirky byways of the English language.
Idioms are arranged alphabetically by key word for easy reference. Sayings in British English are supplemented by American English and other expressions.
Article structure
The invariable components of the entry structure are the
idiom itself with capitalized keyword and any common variants given in brackets, followed by
the definition. In addition there may be a label or labels indicating register and/or
geographical area, a sentence or short paragraph covering etymological, historical and usage
points of interest, and an illustrative quotation. The marking of a quotation with an
asterisk indicates it is the earliest example of the use of this idiom yet traced.
