This work explores the subject and perspectives of phraseology, examining idioms as prototypes of phraseologisms. It delves into non-idiomatic phraseologisms and presents a typology of idioms, discussing allusions, quotations, and set phrases. The book also addresses routine formulas and the communicative function of phraseologisms. Furthermore, it considers the challenges phraseologisms pose in translation. The study is supported by notes, a bilingual glossary, a bibliography, and a subject index, providing a comprehensive resource for understanding the intricacies of phraseological expressions and their significance in communication.
