How to use Chinese idioms? Chinese learners must all know that there are many Chinese idioms. Chinese idioms are usually made only by four characters but they can convey much bigger and deeper meanings, not to mention making you sound smarter too! Today I want to introduce one of the most popular and useful idioms: 因小失大（yin1 xiao3 shi1 da4). It means to forget some smaller things to lose the bigger things. Here’s an example: 为了追女友而辞掉工作真是因小失大！ Can you think of any examples where you can use 因小失大？Leave the message and I'll check for you!I meant to write "The meaning of 因小失大 is to get the smaller things to lose the bigger things" . But actually, I like your translation better Beth. Thanks for the correction.Sorry about my bad English.

Who can help me to correct this article? Thanks! For about five years I’ve been learning English. It’s quite interesting to learn it as a foreign language, because I can understand about other countries. The lessons are interesting because my teacher is funny and we don’t need to do lots of boring exercises in the most of time in the class. I enjoyed to learn English, but for me, the most difficult thing is to speak well. I often forget the word I need and I worried of making mistakes. English pronunciation is not easy either! I don’t mind reading, because there is no time limit for me, so I can think of the words as long as I want. Hope this year I will improve my listening and speaking, so I can get better grades in school. If I would work hard this year, I might be the best student in the class.
