LONGMAN PHRASAL VERBS DICTIONARY

      If you want to practise and develop your knowledge of phrasal verbs and idioms, you will find this book very useful. The various exercises contain many of the most common phrasal verbs and idioms, together with some useful spoken expressions that you might expect to hear or use in an English-speaking environment.
 

You should not go through this book mechanically from beginning to end. It is better to choose one particular verb or topic, do the exercise(s), make a record of any new words and expressions that you learn, then practise using these in sentences or situations of your own. When you feel you have a good command of these, move to another verb or topic and do the same. You should also review the things you have learned on a regular basis, so that they remain 'fresh' in your mind and become part of your 'active' vocabulary. The meanings of most of the phrasal verbs and idioms are explained in the book, either in the exercises themselves, or in the answer key at the back. This key also provides you with lots of similar or alternative expressions, together with examples of how they are used. However, we recommend that you keep a good dictionary with you, and refer to it when necessary. In particular, we recommend the A & C Black Easier English Intermediate Dictionary(ISBN 0-7475-6989-4) or the Macmillan English Dictionary(ISBN 0-333-96482-9), from which many of the definitions and sample sentences in this book have been taken.

        No vocabulary book can possibly contain all of the thousands of English phrasal verbs and idioms that you are likely to come across or need, so it is important to acquire new ones from other sources. If you have access to English-language newspapers, popular magazines, television and radio programmes, films and albums of popular music, you will find that these are excellent resources. We hope that you enjoy doing the exercises in this book. Before you begin, we suggest that you read this
important information about phrasal verbs and idioms.

LONGMAN PHRASAL VERBS DICTIONARY is a book complete with all idiom that may help yo speak like American in good way. this dictionary is the latest publishing from Oxford.
