Description:
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, knocks 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.
