    Description

    मुहावरा मूलत: अरबी भाषा का शब्द है जिसका अर्थ है बातचीत करना या उत्तर देना। कुछ लोग मुहावरे को ‘रोज़मर्रा’, ‘’, या ‘इस्तलाह’ कहते हैं, किन्तु इनमें से कोई भी शब्द ‘मुहावरे’ का पूर्ण पर्यायवाची नहीं बन सका। संस्कृत वाङ्मय में मुहावरा का समानार्थक कोई शब्द नहीं पाया जाता। कुछ लोग इसके लिए ‘प्रयुक्तता’, ‘वाग्रीति’, ‘वाग्धारा’ अथवा ‘भाषा-सम्प्रदाय’ का प्रयोग करते हैं। वी०एस० आप्टे ने अपने ‘इंगलिश-संस्कृत कोश’ में मुहावरे के पर्यायवाची शब्दों में ‘वाक्-पद्धति', ‘वाक् रीति’, ‘वाक्-व्यवहार’ और ‘विशिष्ट स्वरूप' को लिखा है। पराड़कर जी ने ‘वाक्-सम्प्रदाय’ को मुहावरे का पर्यायवाची माना है। काका कालेलकर ने ‘वाक्-प्रचार’ को ‘मुहावरे’ के लिए ‘रूढ़ि’ शब्द का सुझाव दिया है। यूनानी भाषा में ‘मुहावरे’ को ‘ईडियोमा’, फ्रेंच में ‘इंडियाटिस्मी’ और अंग्रेजी में ‘ईडिअम’ कहते हैं।

    An idiom is a phrase or expression that usually presents a figurative, non-literal meaning attached to the phrase. Some phrases which become figurative idioms, however, do retain the phrase's literal meaning. Categorized as formulaic language, an idiom's figurative meaning is different from the literal meaning. Idioms occur frequently in all languages; in English alone there are an estimated twenty-five million idiomatic expressions.
