Abstract:
There is no language without its own collection of idiomatic expressions. They are expressions with a figurative meaning different from its  literal meaning. Idiomatic expressions play a very important role in the establishment of rapport. They are two or more words syntactically related, with a meaning like a single syntactic unit whose meaning is not predictable from its component words. It is said that without a sound knowledge of idioms one's language will remain foreign. Idiomatic expression is a universal feature of language, though different languages may use literally different idioma

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

This study explores the functional characteristics of idiomatic expressions in the English language that contain a person-related component, such as “man”, “person”, or “fellow”. Using a qualitative, descriptive method, a selected set of idioms was analyzed from major dictionaries and corpora for their semantic structure, pragmatic function, and thematic roles. The findings show that person-component idioms serve evaluative, descriptive, and cultural functions, often reflecting societal values, stereotypes, and behavioral norms.

Abstract:
Riddles can be looked at as idiomatic expressions. The function of a riddle in the folklore of some Northern peoples of Russia is to pass on their worldview in teaching children, and riddles are used for such a purpose to the present day. We show that in the folklore of the Northern peoples, the riddle also has a sacral significance: the riddle’s text is a trial, and passing this trial confirms the person’s right to a reward and to achieve a higher status in the social hierarchy.

Mandarin is rich in vocabulary, including the form of 成语chéngyǔ, which is one of the most important parts in Mandarin. Every 成语chéngyǔ has its own background story, including history. Therefore, to understand the meaning of 成语chéngyǔ must understand the background of the story from 成语chéngyǔ. This article describes the idiomatic meaning of 成语chéngyǔ which has natural elements contained in the book of 成语故事Chéngyǔ Gùshi. Each Han character (汉字 Hànzì) that becomes an element in成语chéngyǔ does not reflect the overall meaning of the forming element, so that in general the成语chéngyǔ has idiomatic mean

Thus, the nature of the mission that necessitated the incarnation determined what kind of human nature Jesus was to assume.

Starting from the framework established by Eugen Coșeriu with respect to the levels of language, this paper examines proper names on three functional planes with corresponding stages of competence and speech evaluations. Thus, on the universal level, names are rigid designators; they are non-deictic, devoid of lexical meaning, and display a designative function. This is the level of general naming. On the historical level, names are “embedded”; they develop idiomatic (language-specific) content. This is the level of conventional naming, on which names fulfil an idiomatic function. On the indiv

Mouth organs are very popular in continental Southeast Asia and China, even becoming the representative instruments of many people. Generally, they belong to four types: sheng, qeej, naw, and khaen. Similar in construction and function, there are many ideas about their provenance and transmission. However, a closer look at their nuanced difference leads to the argument that these four types are rather independent siblings than ancestors and descendants. Besides morphological taxonomies, for example mentioned by Blench1 in 2020, the more distinctive differences lie on the reeds and how the pipe

While Vaughan Williams’s immediate post-Paris compositions demonstrate new levels of technical facility and expressive individuality, they are better thought of as representing a transitional stage between his period of apprenticeship and his postwar career. As a whole, works from this era are stylistically inconsistent, but evince the development of a compelling and idiomatic compositional voice. Most conspicuously, pentatonicism, modes, whole-tone scales, and octatonicism increasingly augment or replace the fin-de siècle chromatic tonality that had dominated much of Vaughan Williams’s music

Formally speaking, a monosyllabic verb, preferably bian ‘change, become’, basic action verbs, or psychological state verbs tend to co-occur with complements of adjectival, clausal, or idiomatic expressions. CM/S are argued to be an assessment device indexing speaker evaluative stances. The loaded affective meanings, we contend, account for the larger and more co
