Описание
This monograph primarily aims to offer a thorough overview of the key theoretical work in the field of idiomatology from a syntactic, semantic and socio-cultural point of view. The lexical multi-word unit of idiom is thus discussed at every level of linguistic analysis and is presented as an entity of its own lexical integrity that forms the core of the phraseological system of the English language. Given the pressing need for a clear and concrete delimitation of idiom as a linguistic term that will be used profitably as a working definition for further research into a wide range of issues in relation to the area of second language idiom acquisition in EFL and ESL educational contexts, it is hoped that the present study will function as a reference point capturing several angles of the topic.
