| Rezumat: | The aim of this paper is to explain the relationship between somatic verbal idioms, composite multi-word phrases, as they are traditionally considered, and the architecture of the human cognitive capacity proving that actually, these idioms which will also be briefly defined, are complex mental representations that associate the literal and the target scenes. Based mainly on Langlotz’s work, “Idiomatic Creativity: A cognitive-linguistic model of idiom- representation and idiom-variation in English” (2006) this paper argues that somatic verbal idioms should be perceived as dynamic cognitive structures with various degrees of complexity activated by means of “idiomatic activation-sets” (Langlotz, 2006: 95). Moreover, as this fact is closely linked to Mel’čuk’s belief that “not only every language, but every lexeme of a language, is an entire world in itself” (Mel’čuk in Langlotz, 2006: 93) the paper proves that idioms depend on the interactional mappings of various conceptual structures. |
