The long-standing view that idioms are formally and thus also semantically fixed has been challenged and many studies have shown that idioms are indeed flexible both structurally and semantically to varying degrees. We often come across examples of creatively used idioms, with their original structure disrupted and their semantics affected in the process. This book investigates...

Calvo García De Leonardo, Juan José / Alcantud Díaz, María

Como es bien sabido, el cuento tiene una función pedagógica connatural. Por ello, los cuentos, como los mitos, habrán de revestirse de los elementos externos culturales que le permitan al destinatario aceptarlos como propios de su entorno físico o, en su defecto, de sus coordenadas metafísicas y morales. Cada núcleo narrativo se puede adaptar a cada cultura con un discurso dist...

With the serious tone this capital issue requires, the author debunks the myth of ...

Por otro lado, en el contexto actual es cada vez más necesario aprender lenguas extranjeras, sobre todo la inglesa. Este libro analiza la enseñanza de idiomas a personas con discapacida...

The agri-food sector encompasses an extremely wide range of activities regarding the entire value chain of a product and generates a huge volume of work for translators. Nevertheless, the sheer proportion has yet to be truly reflected in academic studies and research. This work intends to shed light on the vague, and barely addressed until now, delimitation of the area of activ...

The discourse genres examined comprise business pitches, political debates, media discourse, fiction, social networks, etc., either in English or Spanish. The editors bring together a miscellanea of pa...
