Phraseology is a branch of linguistics that studies phraseological units, including idioms, proverbs, and set
expressions. It focuses on their meaning, structure, origin, and usage in different contexts. These units are characterized
by semantic unity, structural stability, and expressiveness, making them crucial for effective communication and cultural
understanding. Phraseology also examines the historical development, functional aspects, and stylistic features of these
fxed expressions in language.
