The impact of teaching idiomatic expressions on the foreign language learners comprehension

الملخص EN

This study explains the role of idiomatic expressions in improving the comprehension of the foreign language learners as these expressions are cultural specifics and can affect the understanding of the foreign language learners.

Therefore, it is important that these expressions should be introduced in foreign language textbooks and taught by the teachers of the foreign language.

Idiomatic expressions should be taught in context and not in isolation because their figurative meaning is not clear from the literal meaning of their individual constituents.
