Review: Best of its kind! - The reason why I bought Cambridge Idioms is because of two things. 1 I love to learn Idioms & phrases 2. I have Cambridge's phrasal verbs which is an excellent one and I have to consider its influence. The major plus point is the way Cambridge present it. It's easy to read and It could be a reason why the new Oxford Idioms follows the same style that Cambridge have. The book provides an etymology on certain words, but if you really want to get the etymology of most words, then I would suggest Oxford, which includes the etymology of more words than Cambridge. Another thing is that towards the end of this book there are some exercises which are very helpful and they also put some idioms under categories like daily life, traveling etc. To sum up, this book is an excellent one, but since new idioms and phrases are coming in it's better to buy the latest edition. Review: A very strong vocabulary building tool - Reasonable pricing, excellent references covering current and contemporary idioms. Worth a buyer. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #22,829 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #2,030 in CBSE (Books) | | Customer Reviews | 4.5 out of 5 stars 459 Reviews | ## Images ![Cambridge Idioms Dictionary, 2Nd Edition - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/7174jJEOxLL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Best of its kind! *by R***N on 8 January 2014* The reason why I bought Cambridge Idioms is because of two things. 1 I love to learn Idioms & phrases 2.

Worth a buyer. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ A good dictionary of idioms but please don't expect for every idiom to be found in it. *by D***A on 20 March 2017* This is a very good dictionary of idioms but please don't put your expectations too high. It doesn't contain too many idioms. Still it is a good choice. I purchased it for rupees 278. Pros- 1. The paper which is used is of extremely good quality. 2. Printing is also nice. Clarity in every word. 3. It is printed in color. 4. Font size is also quite big. 5. Searching a word is also easy. You will not find any issue in searching for the right word. 6. Correct and precise explanation of the idioms is given. You will get the nuanced view of the idioms. 7. Usage of idioms in the sentences is also provided. That makes the idioms more clear. 8. Wherever needed, diagrams are also used to explain the idiom. Cons- 1. I have searched for many idioms and could not find many of them in this dictionary. So this dictionary also doesn't contain a substantial amount of idioms. Even if you want to use it for competitive examinations, you will not get many of the idioms in it. Final comment- Cambridge dictionary of idioms is better than Oxford idioms dictionary. It is one of the best dictionaries of idioms available in the market. So you don't have much choice in this regard. You can go for it but please don't keep your expectations too high. ## Frequently Bought Together - Cambridge Idioms Dictionary, 2Nd Edition - 3000 Idioms And Phrases (english Improvement For Success) - One Word Substitution --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.in/products/75822390-cambridge-idioms-dictionary-2nd-edition](https://www.desertcart.in/products/75822390-cambridge-idioms-dictionary-2nd-edition) --- *Product available on Desertcart India* *Store origin: IN* *Last updated: 2026-05-23*
