What's the meaning of 应有尽有?

Recommended Posts

It's an idiom meaning that everything you could ever wish for is there.

 

You can also find this in dictionaries such as pleco (highly recommend you get this).

 

Pleco has this example:

 

这家超市日用品应有尽有。

Zhè jiā chāoshì rìyòngpǐn yīngyǒujìnyǒu.

This supermarket has just about everything you could wish for.

Actually I just tried to look up "didactic" in Pleco (for something related to my teaching), and for the first time I experienced it not having a definition.

We'll just have to pray it never crops up in the title to a gaming video :D
