Phraseology is the study of set or fixed expressions, phrases, and idiomatic combinations of words in a language. It encompasses how these phrases are formed, their meanings, and their usage within various contexts. In linguistics, phraseology examines how word combinations convey meaning beyond the individual words, exploring aspects like collocations (words that frequently go together), idioms (expressions with meanings not deducible from their individual words), and proverbs.
