Abstract

Somatic idioms are those that have a part of the body as a component. This paper analyzes somatic idioms recorded in Čabar, a region of Gorski kotar. The basic structural and semantic characteristics of the observed idioms are exemplified by transcribed attestations. All examples were collected through field research. Most of the expressions come from the local speech of Tršće, with some from Prezid, Čabar and the village of Hrvatsko.

Keywords
