THEORETICAL FOUNDATIONS OF PHRASEOLOGICAL UNITS AND SIMILES
Abstrak
Phraseology is a significant branch of linguistics that studies stable word combinations known as phraseological units. These units are an essential part of any language because they reflect cultural identity, historical development, and cognitive processes of a speech community. Phraseological units differ from free word combinations in that they are fixed, idiomatic, and often carry meanings that cannot be understood literally. According to A. P. Cowie, phraseological units constitute a core component of vocabulary, combining semantic unity with structural stability. Among various types of phraseological expressions, simile-based constructions occupy a special place due to their vivid imagery and comparative structure.
