IDIOMS AND IDIOMATIC PHRASES AND EXPRESSIONS USED IN TRAVELLING AND TOURISM

Summary/Abstract: This paper aims at focusing on idioms and expressions related to travelling and tourism and attempts to show a fresh look at the idiomatic phrases that make English the rich and intriguing language that it is. A corpora from both monolingual and bilingual dictionaries will be selected. The theoretical instruments of analysis will lead me in the investigation of the linguistic and lexical pattern of idioms and idiomatic phrases and will help me identify the way these words and expressions are reflected in idiomatic language. Having these goals as a background the paper is focused on developing a practical direction which will include a list of idioms related to travelling meant to be an useful tool for students and teachers of English, both at university level and for English as a second language as well as for anyone interested in the more colourful side of the English language.
