d. Discussion:
English idiom or idiomatic expressions are Greek
in origin. The word idiom means “a
private citizen, something belonging to a private
citizen, personal,” and, by extension, something
individual and peculiar. Idiomatic Expressions,
then, conform to no laws or principles describing
their formation. They may also violate grammar
or logic or both and still be acceptable because
the phrase is familiar, deep-rooted, widely used,
and easily understandable- for the native born.
“How do you do?” is, for example, an accepted
idiom, although an exact answer would be
absurd.
Choose the appropriate word to complete the meaning of the idiom. Write ocean, music,
rags, cold and pie in the blanks provided.
