Collection: idioms & expressions
Idioms and expressions are phrases commonly used in everyday language to convey ideas or sentiments in a figurative manner.
Idioms
Idioms are phrases whose meanings are understood by speakers of a particular language or cultural group, but the meanings are not literal. The individual words in an idiom don't explain its meaning, which is instead established by common usage.
Expressions
Expressions encompass a wide range of common phrases and sayings used in communication. These can include idioms but also cover other types of phrases that might be more literal or conventional in their meaning.
Both idioms and expressions make language more vivid and expressive. They often reflect cultural nuances and historical contexts, adding depth and colour to communication.
