Idioms are unified linguistic units that can be individual words, phrases, or complete sentences, whose meaning is not equal to the sum of the meanings of their components.
In other words, idioms often lack a causal connection between their constituent parts and their overall meaning (e.g. in "hasi" and "fexi", I fall into good hands).
The "Dictionary of Idioms in Modern Greek" fills a gap in Greek lexicography. The collection of idioms in the dictionary from contemporary Greek literature, as well as their alphabetical and semantic encoding, make the "Dictionary of Idioms in Modern Greek" a lively and particularly useful tool.
It is addressed to all those who love and use the Greek language. While it will be particularly useful for those who need a wide range of linguistic choices in their work, such as philologists, translators, advertisers, journalists, etc.
This dictionary is also a valuable support for individuals learning Greek as a second or foreign language and will introduce them to a large part of its richness.
