Tóm tắt

Idioms exist in every language and cannot be deduced merely by studying the words in the phrases. If language learning only relied on linguistic messages without consideration of cultural features, misunderstanding and distortion of target language texts would definitely be unavoidable and the communication would absolutely break off. This paper compares and contrasts four parts of human body in English idioms translated into Vietnamese to identify their figurative meanings. Accordingly, the implication and recommendations are drawn in language learning and teaching.
