Thread Name: Help: English Idiom Dictionary
Subject: English Idiom Dictionary
I'm trying to find a decent online dictionary of English idioms, preferably one which gives the origin of phrases.

In particular, I'm currentlly trying to find the origin of the phrase "cut off one's nose to spite one's face."

Grateful for any help. Thanks.
