Answer:
An idiom is a phrase or expression that typically presents a figurative, non-literal meaning attached to the phrase; but some phrases become figurative idioms while retaining the literal meaning of the phrase. Categorized as formulaic language, an idiom's figurative meaning is different from the literal meaning.
EXAMPLES:
1.I'm going to call it a night. - I'm going to bed.
2.Hang in there. - Stick with it.
