RESEARCH OVERVIEW
Abstract
The article under discussion describes in detail the sources of idiom formation in the English language. Idiomatic expressions can be native English and borrowed. Borrowed idiomatic expressions may, in turn, be inter- and intralingual. The authors of the article found it necessary to single out phraseological units created by English writers into a separate group.
