Fun with Chinese Idioms volume2

The Chinese love idioms, with their characteristic wit and appreciation of language, will often coin pithy sayings on the spot. But Chinese idioms are not just a play on words; they are the heart and soul of the Chinese language, imparting insight and advice through humour and sheer economy of words.
 

Fun with Chinese Idioms, with its fresh illustrations and concise explanations in English and Chinese, sheds light on these expressions, some of which are thousands of years old. It is a delightful way to learn some of the most commonly used idioms, from the thousands that exist in the Chinese language.
