English Visual Dictionary

by Collins Dictionaries

Are you planning to continue your education in the UK? Have you recently gotten a job which requires you to relocate to Darren Naish's homeland? If so, this wonderful visual dictionary is just what the doctor ordered!

English Visual Dictionary by Collins Dictionaries is an extremely comprehensive dictionary that teaches you English vocabulary that you need in order to survive in the UK by virtue of clear, relevant pictures. The book is divided into 10 theme-based chapters, ranging from "The Essentials" to "Leisure" to "Special Days", ensuring that everything you need is covered. Even though it is a visual dictionary, it also presents common expressions without accompanying images which you might need in order to communicate successfully in the UK. One of my favorite features in this book is the YOU SHOULD KNOW... sections, which give readers useful information about local customs. For example, do you know what double yellow lines on the road means? You'll find the answer to such questions in this dictionary!

Note that the vocabulary contents of this book are British English, which means that some of them may not be suitable to use in American English.

In summary, English Visual Dictionary will be of such great help, communication-wise, to those would love to explore the UK.

Colorful Meadow

The horizon is marching towards the wanderer

Swooped over by a smirking wave of doom and gloom

You instantaneously fall down to your knees

Crying your eyes out, deluging the terra firma

The sea of tears engulfs your whole body, there seeming to be no hands to grip and hold onto

This arena can be downright cruel

There is no denying

Look around and take in everything

When the force acts capriciously

Slouch and embrace the fate handed to you

Life is a conglomeration of multitudinous experiences

To be present is to be an emperor

Gaze the firmament and launch into your crafted heaven

Drink in the rainbow spectacle and share the joy with me

Bliss only matters when we feel it

Nonchalantly sauntering in the colorful meadow

I savor every note passing through my ears

The aromatic floral scent

The melodic avian song

I am ready for this tireless journey

The creation of this poem was inspired by Dao Xiang (稻香) by Jay Chou.
