This app helps non-native English speakers make idioms easier to recognise and remember. Each learning page presents an idiom with an image, Chinese meaning, English explanation and a sample sentence. Exaggerated visuals are used to make an expression more memorable, while the bilingual presentation gives learners a quick route between meaning and use.
The project also gives learners tools for returning to material in their own way. They can move forward and back through the idioms, add a learning image to a note, type or draw their own notes and save a screen capture for later. A search feature lets users look up a full idiom or a key word, then open the matching entry directly from the results.
