Phraseology Topics for Discussion

Abstract

Phrase logical fusions are specific for every language and do not lend themselves to literal translation into other languages. Semantic stylistic features contracting set expressions into units of fixed context are simile, contrast, metaphor and synonymy. Phrase logical unities are much more numerous. They are clearly motivated. The emotional quality is based upon the image created by the whole as in to stick (to stand) to one's guns, i. e. refuse to change one's statements or opinions in the face of opposition', implying courage and integrity.
