Mira Menac-Mihalić

Abstract

Idioms with a toponym as a component have been collected in different parts of the Croatian vernacular. In Croatian speeches, there are few universal idioms that can also be found in other European and world language systems. There are plentiful different local idioms. The meaning and structure of an idiom are often the same in various speeches with only a change in toponym.
