This reference guide is ideal for any readers who show interest in learning Chinese Idioms and is useful for learners of Cantonese and Mandarin.Around 1000 commonly used Chinese idioms being in Traditional Chinese are listed in this book and are placed under the headings being the total number of Chinese Characters. These idioms are further sorted in ascending order (that is Chinese Characters sorted by the number of strokes from least to most), and lastly by Chinese stroke orders. Simplified Chinese (placed inside the round brackets only if applicable), Sidney Lau Cantonese Romanisation, Mandarin Pinyin and the English meaning or equivalent are given for each Chinese idiom. I hope this book can help readers to understand more about Chinese Idioms.
