Abstract

 


This paper deals with the different teaching strategies and techniques that can be used to teach idiomatic expressions, their meaning, and usage, to non-native speakers of English. This is a topic of importance, on the one hand, because idiomatic expressions are rarely found in other languages. For example, for a non-native speaker of English, if he cannot find an equivalent in his language to an idiomatic expression, it feels almost impossible to understand it. On the other hand, it is very difficult for teachers or grammar materials to teach idiomatic expressions to foreign students in a good way. In recent years, some teachers, researchers, and linguists have proposed several methods, approaches, or techniques that can help students comprehend idiomatic expressions.
