Idioms in English, Volume 4 is designed for non-native speakers of English and presents 100 new idioms in stories and dialogs by native speakers. After each story or dialog, the idioms are presented in sentences with an opportunity for the listener to say the sentence (when you hear the chime) out loud. Idioms are used very frequently by native spakers of English. If you don't understand the idiom, then you can miss parts of presentations, conversations, and television or newspaper stories.

An idiom is a group of words with a special meaning of its own that is not clear from the meanings of the individual words.

思想や哲学なんて余計なことだ、というような人がいるけれども、私はそんなことはないと思う。 このエッセイ集のいわばもととなった、私が30代半ばで書いた本『生きて死ぬ私』）（茂木健一郎、当時は徳間書店、現在はちくま文庫）の中に、 「哲学とファッションショー」というタイトルのエッセイがある。 一部引用する。 「哲学者が必死になって切り開いた知のフロンティアの恩恵を、何年か経って、普段は哲学など考えもしないような一般の人々も受ける。逆に、今日普通の人が何気なく考えていることの多くは、何年か前には哲学の最先端の問題であった。哲学者が、時には発狂の危険まで犯して（！？）獲得して来た「知」の最先端が、何年か経って、一般の人が「そんなの当り前でしょう」と欠伸をしながら言うような一般常識に変貌するのである。」（本文より） 脳科学者茂木健一郎の原点ともいうべき書籍『生きて死ぬ私』の続編となるエッセイ「続・生きて死ぬ私」を連載したメルマガ茂木健一郎「樹下の微睡み」はこちらから→http://yakan-hiko.com/mogi.html
