| Abstract: | Whether an idiomatic expression is used creatively in specific contexts depends on the degree to which the idiom's intrinsic creativity is open to the language user as well as the degree to which the user can manipulate the original idiom to suit his or her purpose. The hypothesis is that the size of an idiom's activation-set will correlate with its variation potential. |
