==Description==

In [[linguistics]], '''phraseology''' is the [[study]] of set or fixed [[expressions]], such as [[idioms]], [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phrasal_verb phrasal verbs], and other types of multi-word [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lexical_unit lexical units] (often collectively referred to as [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phraseme ''phrasemes'']), in which the component parts of the [[expression]] take on a meaning more specific than or otherwise not [[predictable]] from the sum of their meanings when used independently. For example, ‘Dutch auction’ is composed of the words Dutch ‘of or pertaining to the Netherlands’ and auction ‘a public sale in which [[goods]] are sold to the highest bidder’, but its [[meaning]] is not ‘a sale in the Netherlands where goods are sold to the highest bidder’. Instead, the phrase has a conventionalized meaning referring to any [[auction]] where, instead of rising, the prices fall.

The basic [[units]] of [[analysis]] in ''phraseology'' are often referred to as [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phraseme phrasemes] or phraseological units. Phraseological units are (according to Prof. Kunin A.V.) stable [[word]]-[[groups]] with partially or fully transferred [[meanings]] ("to kick the bucket", “Greek gift”, “drink till all's blue”, “drunk as a fiddler (drunk as a lord, as a boiled owl)”, “as mad as a hatter (as a march hare)”). According to Rosemarie Gläser, a phraseological unit is a lexicalized, reproducible bilexemic or polylexemic word group in common use, which has relative syntactic and semantic [[stability]], may be [[Idioms|idiomatized]], may carry [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Connotations connotations], and may have an emphatic or [[intensifying]] [[function]] in a [[text]].[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phraseology]
