An idiom is a phrase or expression that typically presents a figurative, non-literal meaning attached to the phrase; but some phrases become figurative idioms while retaining the literal meaning of the phrase. Categorized as formulaic language, an idiom's figurative meaning is different from the literal meaning. For example, It takes one to know one meaning You're just as bad as I am It's a piece of cake meaning, It's easy It's raining cats and dogs meaning, It's raining hard.
