Abstract:
There are idiomatic pairs in both English and Vietnamese. While idiomatic pairs in Vietnamese have been extensively researched from different views, it seems that there have been few thorough studies of idiomatic pairs across English and Vietnamese. This paper looks into the structural and semantic properties of idiomatic pairs in English and Vietnamese using the framework of idiom analysability (Langlotz, 2006). This is a contrastive analysis that presents the similarities and differences between English and Vietnamese idiomatic pairs in terms of structural and semantic properties, including

Abstract:
This article presents a historical cognitive analysis of the development of phrasal verbs (PVs) with out and away in Early and Late Modern English. Semantically, PVs in Present-Day English can be classified as being (a) fully compositional (e.g. go out), (b) partially idiomatic, with the particle having an aspectual (i.e. grammatical) function (e.g. work away) and (c) (fully or highly) idiomatic (e.g. make out ‘understand’; see Quirk et al. 1985, Jackendoff 2010). As is clear from this classification, the development of PVs has, at least, involved grammaticalization and idiomatization. However

Abstract:
This study deals with the English idioms, their classification and importance along with a discussion on the relation between idioms and culture. Many researchers have shown interest in idioms and they have classified idioms from different points of view. Moreover, idioms and culture are inherently connected and that is why it is not effective to teach or learn idioms without knowing their connection to it. Idioms and idiomatic expressions are very frequent in the English language and used by the native speaker throughout their lives. Most Idioms and idiomatic expressions provide a different m
