About this copy
This is the Second Edition of this dictionary, first published in 1986 and reprinted with revisions and an additional category in 1994. The copyright page's printer's number line indicates this specific copy is a later reprint of the revised second edition text, not a first printing. A paperback reference work with thematically arranged idiom entries, covering some 4,000 phrases with definitions and usage examples.
Condition

- Good – paperback in sound, complete condition with some creasing to the front cover and light wear to the corners and spine ends consistent with previous use. Text block is clean.
This is a pre-owned book, and minor age-related wear may be present beyond what is specifically mentioned. All readily visible defects have been described to the best of my ability. Please see photos, which form part of the description.
