E. Abstraction:

IDIOMS or IDIOMATIC EXPRESSIONS

are phrases or expressions whose meaning can't be understood from the
ordinary meanings of the words in it.

For example, I will clean my room "when the pigs fly". Meaning, I will never clean my
room. Simply said that the person involved is lazy.

Remember that every language has idioms, and they can be difficult to learn if we
are not a native speaker of that language. If English isn't our native language, the
best thing that we can do is to have conversations with native speakers and ask them
about phrases that we don't understand. Since idioms are influenced by the culture,
learning the idioms of a language can be very interesting and enlightening.

F. Application:

I have here a Plate of Idioms.

I will call a name then you get one, read it and give the meaning of that idiomatic
expression.
-"Your guess is as good as mine" - to have no idea, do not know the answer to a
question
