活用英文慣用語
慣用語、習慣用語、習語或成語，雖然中文名稱略有不同，但英文指的其實都是同一個字，即 idiom，也就是 idiomatic expression。本書以慣用語為名，內容中則交互使用大家比較熟悉的慣用語和成語這兩個名稱。 慣用語或成語的一個特色就是，其意思大多是不易從字面推敲出來的比喻意思，僅少部分的慣用語除比喻意思外還保留字面意思。英文常見的慣用語能傳達言簡意賅的概念，通常被用於口說且被視為非正式用語。 本書收錄的慣用語都是相當常用且極具代表性，保證對英文能力的提升會有一定程度的助益。但這些慣用語僅是英文海量慣用語或成語中的一小部分而已。不過，本書提綱挈領的敘述方式提供讀者一個正確的慣用語學習方向，可為日後學習更多慣用語奠定良好的基礎，成為事半功倍、快速精通英文慣用語的入門磚。
