McGraw-Hill's Dictionary of American Idioms is the most comprehensive reference of its kind, bar none. It puts the competition to shame, by giving both ESL learners and professional writers the complete low-down on more than 24,000 entries and almost 27,000 senses.

Entries include idiomatic expressions
(e.g. the best of both worlds), proverbs (the best things in life are
free), and clich é s (the best-case scenario). Particular attention is
paid to verbal expressions, an area where ordinary dictionaries are deficient.

The dictionary also includes a handy Phrase-Finder
Index that lets users find a phrase by looking up
any major word appearing in it.

From the Back Cover
The most comprehensive, in-depth guide to common American idioms and phraseology available

The hardest part of getting the hang of a language is
making sense of its idioms. From proverbial expressions such as "a
stitch in time saves nine," to idioms such as "dead ringer," to such
common verbal phrases as "put out" and "take on," these colorful
constructions, so abundant in American English, seem to serve no other
purpose than to frustrate and confuse. But don't despair! Thanks to the
efforts of noted lexicographer Richard A. Spears, mastering American
English idioms has never been easier.

McGraw-Hill's Dictionary of
American Idioms and Phrasal Verbs covers the full breadth and scope of
idiomatic American English, making it an essential companion to standard
desk dictionaries. An invaluable resource for ESL students, as well as
writers, scholars, and public speakers, this reference combines in one
volume the two most perplexing aspects of American English
phraseology--idioms and phrasal verbs--providing ready access to the
complete meanings and varying usages of thousands of common terms and
verb constructs.

Outstanding features include:
- More than 24,000 entries and 27,000 senses
- Idiomatic phrases, proverbial
expressions, and cliches
- Concise definitions, plus one or more
example sentences for each phrase
- Sources (e.g., the Bible,
Shakespeare, etc.) and origins (e.g., Rural, Nautical)
- Guidance on the correct tone and social context
- Uniquely thorough treatment
of variation (e.g., to get, to have, or to give the low-down)
- A comprehensive Phrase-Finder Index of more than 60,000 entries--let's you locate phrases by key words,
including common particles in two-part
verbs
