Some unique features of this book are as follows: over 3,200 idiomatic expressions in American English; easy to understand, week-by-week methodology in which to learn idioms; unique classification system of 32 functional categories to help in understanding idioms; concise and simple definitions and explanations in plain, everyday English; and, lively and authentic illustrations of the language.

In this era of globalization and the world-wide web, the
ability to communicate accurately and effectively using English idioms is
more important than ever. The ability to grasp the sound and usage of
these everyday idiomatic expressions is a key element to success for every
second language speaker of English. Grouping idioms into
easy-to-understand categories is an effective learning tool to assist the
English language learner in acquiring an understanding of these distinctive
expressions. This innovative method is used in American English Idiomatic
Expressions in 52 Weeks: An Easy Way to Understand English Expressions and
Improve Speaking.
