What Are Idioms and Phrases?

Idioms are groups of words that have a meaning that isn’t obvious from the individual words. For example, when someone says “It’s raining cats and dogs,” they don’t mean that animals are falling from the sky! Instead, it means it’s raining very heavily. Phrases can be similar, often conveying a specific idea or sentiment in a creative way.
