Overview

This is an English study book aimed at Chinese speakers learning conversational English. The book presents lots of everyday slang, colloquial idioms and expressions which native speakers use in real life, which Hong Kong Chinese learners could benefit from as they integrate into local communities in the U.K. It gives practical and lively examples in the form of scenarios dialogues in both English and Cantonese/Mandarin where these words can be used so that learners can understand them easily and therefore use them more readily. There are further explanations of relevant words and phrases in their correct tone and context.
