Sinopsis

What student of Japanese has not grappled with the amazing diversity and tantalizingly elusive nuances of its idioms? One certainly would not want to confuse, for example,áki ga mawaruá(to be considerate) witháki o mawasuá(to be suspicious). And it would be useful to know whether your boss isáhara ga tatsuá(angry) or merelyáki ga tatsuá(upset). Indeed, even a single idiom can have a bewildering number of meanings depending on context,áte o ireru, for instance, can mean tidying up (as a room), sounding out someone, or making a raid.This dictionary offers the most comprehensive compilation and English translation of those idiomatic expressions that so enrich the Japanese language but fail to find their way into conventional dictionaries. It presents more than 10000 idiomatic phrases under 1000 main entries, including several thousands of idioms never presented and explained in English before. Multiple sample sentences are given for each entry, andáfuriganaáallows even beginning students to pronounce correctly and to use the expressions immediately. A thumb index and two-color printing, with allákanjiáandákanaáin red, make entries exceptionally easy to access.
