- Abstract
- Phraseology, the study of idiomatic expressions and constructions in the broadest sense, never ceases to fascinate linguists, learners, and language lovers. Practicing a native or foreign language at high proficiency level requires a complex understanding of all its figurative and idiomatic meanings. Behind these meanings lie many cultural references, inherited from the history of nations and their traditions. Finally, translation, even in the age of artificial intelligence, comes up against the obstacle of idiomaticity, which is often difficult to render in a target language. This book contains selected contributions presented at the Europhras 2021 international conference (Louvain-la-Neuve, September 6-9, 2021). They cover a wide range of scientific disciplines related to idiomaticity: in particular, the study of proverbs (paremiology), cultural and contrastive studies, translation studies, corpus-based studies, and automated methods.
