1001 English Expressions and Phrases: Common Sentences and Dialogues Used by Native English Speakers in Real-Life Situations by Jackie Bolen
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

In a world of hundreds of languages, it is sometimes helpful to know common phrases and expressions in any language. For those learning English, online translating services can be helpful, but they often miss out on local dialects or sayings that are not translatable. The author of this book is giving you 1001 of the most commonly used English expressions and their definitions which will help you in utilizing them in regular conversations. By studying these, not only will your English improve, but your conversational skill will as well.
Coming from an author who is an educator and is used to teaching English to people who do not understand it, this book was well written and laid out in an easy to follow manner. I was looking for something for my Mother in law and I have passed this book along to her. I think it will really help her understand nuances better and anyone else who is looking for some pointers will be able to learn something as well.
